Does any version of Android support VNC or similar windows remote access? If not, someone will either have to develop something like it. Same applies to SKYPE for audio. That's probably available, or some other VOIP that works on both Android and Windows. Instead of VNC I've been thinking of dev

Hi, Folks Carl's (N4PY) controller software with its ability to marry up Flex Radios with the Orion 2 to allow the use of the Flex as a 2nd receiver, along with its great panadapter, spurred me into developing a small utility that does just that - without all the control capability
