using the KX2 as a remote control head for K3

I seem to recall this being discussed with the KX3, but I haven't been able
to find the relevant discussion.

I'm curious if the KX2 can be used to control the K3 remotely in the same
way that a K3 can be used to do so. Any tips or links to help me figure
this out would be much appreciated.

I am using RCForb connected to the K3 in the shack, but also have an RRC
remote unit and would consider any other options.

73,

Has this question been answered?

I did search the reflector but could not find an answer.

Igor,

The KX2 does not yet have the rig-control feature of the KX3. This would be fairly easy to add. However, it is only a limited parametric controller; see page 28 of the KX3 manual.

K3-to-K3 remote control mirrors the front panel directly. For that you need a K3, K3S, or K3/0-mini at the control end.

In either case, audio streams and the keyer paddle must be handled separately.
