You can do it several ways. If the O7 is near your computer, you can just
connect a serial port from the computer to the O7. I think the limit on a
serial cable is about 50 feet. If the O7 is 1200 feet from the shack, you
can run an ethernet cable from the computer to the O7. My N4PY software
will then control the radio very nicely. My webpage is at www.n4py.com
