I have been experimenting with remote control of HRD via the internet with fantastic results.
I have successfully operated HRD remotely with a laptop running Windows 2000 as the server and a laptop using Windows XP as the remote client.
The TX/RX audio is provided by either IP-Sound or Skype interface. IP-Sound Final is available from the
G4URH download page.
There will be a need to interface from the server laptop sound and microphone connections to the radio.
This will connect to the radio equipment microphone input and audio/line output.
On some radio equipment there are external connections for mic input and received audio/line located at the back of the radio.
This is normally via a plug and socket.
A static IP address is also required and can be provided by a VPN service using Hamachi software.
This is available for download at:
LogMeln Hamachi - Download or you can download it from the
G4URH download page.
Now I'm looking for solutions to the remaining issues:
1. Remote control of station AC power
2. Audio switching from multiple HRD controlled rigs
