Hello Everyone,
Perchance has anyone on the list tried remote control of his/her K2 (e/w a KIO2 accessory) using PC Anywhere as described in the April, 2007 QST?

The problem with PC Anywhere is the bandwidth that it requires and creates
latency. I use Ham Radio Deluxe which operates with a host program running on 1 computer and a client program on the other. This in conjunction with Skype to pass the 2-way audio works great. I've done demos (last one a couple weeks ago at Superfest at AES in Milwaukee) and latency ends up being very low. For my home station from Milwaukee to Cedarburg (home) less than 20ms latency on all operations, from Milwaukee to India under 300ms, still great as anything under 400 or so ms works well. I have tried with PcAnywhere which requires much more data to transfer and latency goes way up and all actions are very delayed. Gregg R.

I need to splurge 200 bucks for it. Nuts. I download VNC (free) and do not understand how to use it yet. I also down load that audio one, Skype? and had no issue using that. I was able to make my lap communicate with my desk top well with Skype. However .... if you have Ham Radio Deluxe, it will do same thing. You need to install one in each PC, get skype in each PC, and it should work same way. HRD remote will not work with Vista. (again, nuts) I'm thinking of dumping Vista. (I got it with my new lap) to make my world little easier to do ham radio remote. Let me know how you do ...

HRD will work with Vista in the future Simon is working on the problems, may
be sooner than you think.

However, its bandwidth requirements are as high as PC Anywhere. There is also desktop sharing built into Windows but, again, the bandwidth requirements are too great to make it useful for ham radio. 73, Doug --K0DXV _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

In the past, PC Anywhere opened up some major security holes in
computers and networks. Once installed, it announced itself like a beacon, screaming for script kiddies to come and get it. It may have been fixed by now, but I wouldn't want it on any network I was responsible for. This is demonstrated by it being a bandwidth hog. I used to get announcements on my network all the time when I was on cable, where folks had installed it and it was probing the network. David Wilburn [hidden email] K4DGW K2 #5982 Gregg R.
