Hello John,
The remote control through TCP/IP exists in Multipsk. I and Cesco (HB9TLK) have
permitted to control a remote transceiver thanks to a TCP/IP link through which
it is transported the sound (as Skipe) and the commands (RX/TX).
For this, click on the button Mdem. Click on Help ("RX/TX operations through
signals exchanged with a TCP/IP server") for more details.
You must start, on the remote transceiver side, either Gui_serv_Multipsk
(HB9TLK) or Multidem (F6CTE).
It is not as complete as what is presented by K7AGE (because it is limited to
digital modes and you can't change the XCVR frequency), but it permits at least
to make digital QSOs through the remote transceiver.
For example it might be possible to send CQ DE F6CTE/VE5MU F6CTE/VE5MU +K if
F6CTE controls the transceiver of VE5MU (in fact it is theoritical as it is
strictly forbidden in France). Afterwards, F6CTE will be able to QSO with
another Ham. However there is a random latency time (up to several seconds) due
to Internet which remind you that you are not in direct...

Subject: [multipsk] Remote Access Desktop, and remote digital operation
I have been fooling around with Windows XP remote access desktop, and found
that I can readily access a desktop on any computer , wired or wireless,
connected to my router.
Further, I found that if I was signed in on the ham computer , and MultiPSK
or MixW was running already, I could change modes etc and actually do a digital
QSO from a remote computer. I also had the Kenwood rig control software
running, so could change frequencies, power, etc etc .
Since Digital doesn't need any audio feed to the remote, or microphone feed,
it really lends itself to remote operations.
Trying this from the internet though did not permit accessing the computer..
according to XP documentation it's possible but didn't work for me. It looks
like we need a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to do this?
Possible applications include remote control of a Station located in an EOC,
and enabling folks like Patrick
To access a station in North America to try the software personally. I'm not
sure of the US laws, but know that
Patrick could run a station here remotely, signing himself F6CTE/VE5 , since
there is a reciprocal agreement between Canada and France
Any bright ideas on how we can do this ?
