http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=28 describes a software client that
requires only a small dongle for some interconnects. It also serves as a
passkey for the software. You have an RRC at the radio end and a PC plus
this dongle at your control site. It looked perfect for me to complement my
fixed-station control site when traveling. I never got it working very
well, though. That may have been operator error but I lost interest before
getting it going satisfactorily. They have since upgraded the device. It
may work fine but I'm not a good reference. Your inquiry reminds me to try
again! ;-)

Once again this year I'm planning to visit friends over the Thanksgiving
weekend. Unlike in the past, I won't be able to set up for CQWW-CW from
where
I'm staying. Instead, I'd like to remote back in to my home station.
Last year I used RemoteHams software and N1MM+, and it worked OK as
proof-of-concept, but I wasn't knocked out with the whole workflow. The
latency
wasn't a big problem, but the lack of paddles was. The macros in N1MM+ were
fine, but too often I wanted to send by hand, which I couldn't easily do
with
the RCFOrb client software. The server side software worked OK, but it's
very
finicky.
I'd like a hardware solution, but not something as expensive or unwieldy
as a
K3/0. I'm thinking along the lines of something I can throw in a briefcase,
connect to my laptop, and plug in headphones and paddles (or a mic, heavens
forbid) and not have to rely on a dodgy piece of Windows software. Any
thoughts?
I remember that the Remotehams guys had a hardware box but I've never known
anybody who used it, and I'm not sure if RemoteRig's boxes are what I'm
after
either (don't they only work in contention with a K3/something?).
