[Amps] Alpha87a remoting over the internet

[dgb]

Hi Herb and tnx for the reply.

That is what I have done for my remote operations as well. I use Green 
Heron's switches for my antennas which have a Server/Client setup.

Was just hoping for a more elegant situation without using Teamviewer. 
Had used Elecraft's KPA500 before and they had a wonderful S/C setup. 
Just wish the other manufactures would have followed.

Got a SPE Expert1.3k-fa now. One has to use a serial server for it which 
I could also do for the 87A or use Teamviewer. ;-(

I just bought a qth in NC and am setting up a station there with a K3 
and the SPE. Hoping to get the best of both worlds in propagation for 
160 and 80 from either qth.


Take care Herb 73 Dwight NS9I
