KPA500/KAT500 remote utility apps

[kd4iz]

Wayne and Eric,

Is there a possibility of creating/enabling a window position and size save function in a future revision of these two remote control apps. They works very well, but pop up in dead center of my "Screen 1" display on any fresh start. I use "Screen 2" for radio apps have not been able to figure a way to make them stay or return to  where I want them.

That small addition would be a big plus and should be a straight forward mod. Thanks for adding it to a "for consideration" list!

Hi Dave,

These are two different programs. The first one you show in the jpg, with less color, is the KPA500 utility, which is primarily designed for downloading code to the 1500 and reading back status etc in real time. It also has very basic remote control.

The KPA500 Utility is downloaded from
https://elecraft.com/pages/firmware-software
under the 'Amplifier Firmware and Software' tab.


The second 'more colorful' program you show on your webpage is the KPA500 Remote . It is the full featured remote control program for the KP500.

The KPA500 Remote Software is downloaded from the same https://elecraft.com/pages/firmware-software
page under the  'Logging and Control Software for the K-Line and KX-Line'  tab.
