That is something that I requested some years ago and again this year.
To make a box that allows control of the K3(S) using the same port as
the KPod plus a connection to Line in/out for audio.
Using something like an FPGA, with networking integrated, it appears to
be a simple matter to convert the K3(S) into a network device (but WELL
above my ability level), which would simplify remote operations without
the need for a computer (and capable of using battery power). A
matching app (or at least the data exchange) would complete this; tablet
ops are pretty nice, BlueTooth to the tablet/phone for managed audio.
I've worked around it with a computer, TeamViewer and Skype, but there
is no reason it can't be simplified. Using the phone internet, one
could put up a remote where needed (EMCOMM or fun).
I really think that it would be a very useful addition to the K Line;
when they have the time. It would place the K3(S) next to the Flex for
simpler remote ops.
The app should also consider management of an amp, tuner, rotor or other
auxiliary devices; if it gets that far.

I couldn't agree more. I'd buy the hell out of that combination. I'd go
further, and would like to see a smaller physical sized remote for easy
traveling. Fewer physical controls but much less size and weight.

A K3/0 that could directly connect over the internet with a K3s (K3s+ or
K4) is really needed. The remoterig is relatively difficult and old tech.
The client server architecture like flex is using is what is needed.

Hello
any idea if will be a new control radio for remote? Like K3/0 Mini
with remoterig integrated inside it?
Maybe for Dayton will have it?
