Simple Remote Control

[W4GRJ]

I can find several posts on remote control of the K3 via the internet but it is not clear to me the hardware/software needed. What would be the easiest way to set up a basic remote system using the internet with a computer at both ends?

You can read about how I have run my Perseus as a remote receiver using
Ham Radio Deluxe at:
http://www.astromag.co.uk/resources/G4AON_Perseus_remote_access_v2.pdf

An Elecraft K3 is just as easy to remotely operate, however beware the
menu can be accessed by remote...

In order to hear the radio you can use Skype for simplicity (lots of
folk use Skype and are familiar with it), you would need to set an oddly
named user account rather than your normal Skype name and set it to auto
answer and only to names in it's address book. IP Sound also works well
(http://ip-sound.software.informer.com/) but is not well supported. Both
are free.

My Perseus is not currently available on line...
