Thanks for the feedback. I want something simple, so hopefully the FSK will
work for me.
Merry Christmas!

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Remote power on/off progress for K3
Actually it's pin 8, not 5. I use the DTR line on a COM port, with a
transistor level converter (identical to the simple FSK RTTY
interface[1]), to trigger it, with custom software. For testing
purposes, Hercules[2] is quite handy.

You need to provide a way to ground pin 5 on the aux connector. I do this
with a remoterig interface. Any remote relay will work. This turns on the
rig then the rig stays on even if the closure is momentary. To turn it off
you need to send it the power down command via the command serial port. A
macro within HRD will do this easily. The DC out jack on the K3 can then
power a relay to turn on accessories.

Hi Group, Been searching the mailing list for a solution to turn on/off
my
K3 remotely via Ham Radio Deluxe or another means. Looks like there has
been some posts on using serial activity as a trigger to turn on the
radio.
Just wondering if there has been any progress in this area or if someone
has a simple solution? I'm not sure how Kenwood does it on their ts-2000
but the remote on/off feature is pretty smooth via HRD. Suggestions?
Thanks, Chad N0YK
