How to view your Elecraft P3 remotely

[Elecraft mailing list]

I have long been using my K3 remotely and I have wished for a simple way to view my P3 via remote. 
I just found a solution that is working nicely. 
I bought a $20 Wyze Cam 2 which is a 2.4 Ghz webcam with an app for my phone. 
The Wyze cam will focus closely on the P3 giving me a full screen display via my Iphone (using the Wzse App)
The Wyze cam will live stream video directly to my phone with minimal latency. 
This solution is working nicely and at $20 for the camera, you can't beat the price!
You can find out more about the Wyze camera at Wyze | Making Great Technology Accessible | Smart Home Devices

Do you also have access to the P3 controls remotely via the RS-232
port?  My P3 loses its span end-point settings if I change the band via
CAT commands and I would have no way to reset them remotely.

A secondary problem we encountered at W7RN with web cams is that they
have a tendency to gobble up BW.  Even those that operate deferentially
[sending only the changes or sending a screen only when something
changes] were a problem, it seemed that something was always changing in
the image, even if only by one bit in one pixel.

Having access to the remote panadapter would be really cool.

Win4K3Suite macros will work with the K3, P3, and KPA500/1500, even in the same macro, I think.
