I have been using my Flex 5K remote over the internet with the same excellent success. I use UltraVNC to access the computer desktop, and Skype with VAC for audio. Works great from remote locations in Alaska and the west coast; all with my station in VA. The audio reports are so good that people cannot tell that I am operating remote. Great fun! Internet remote operation of the Flex radios is becoming an important required feature! 73' Steve W4YHD

If he hadn't mentioned it over the air I never would have known. I'm wondering if anyone else tried this with any success.
