Can you give us the IP address for access so we can all try out your 
radio to see if we like it? Hihihi, 73

We don't need a thousand, "Mine works!" comments, but one more.

I'm running an Omni VII from a hill 3 miles away remote.  Also a friend 
in
Iowa (I'm in KS) is using it via the WEB with success.  His link is via
the WEB thru my cable modem, thru my router, thru a switch, thru a 
Tranzeo
5.6 GHz LAN link 3 miles, thru a switch to the rig.  The Tranzeo is 
givin
me a 54 Meg link with internal ping of <1ms.  Everything works as
advertised.

Another friend in IA has tried linking thru a wireless local modem ISP 
and
the audio pumping makes it unusuable, although he can control the rig.

Only problem is that the FCC requirement that the TX function be 
disabled
after no PTT for 4 minutes doesn't seem to be implemented.  Or should I
RTFM?

Awaiting Carl's Ethernet program.  May run the SteppIR and rotor via
seperate Ethernet/RS232 box to keep the load off the rig.

Hope this helps the undecided,

N0UU

BTW, rig compares well with the Orion I it sits upon.
