Jeff, If you can set things up to control everything from the local shack computer first, then you can use a remote computer control program to control the shack computer. I like UltraVNC (http://ultravnc.sourceforge.net/) for controlling a remote computer and viewing its desktop - I have not investigated nor solved the problem of getting audio to and from the shack to the laptop location, but some folks have suggested a VoIP based connection would do the task.
For only PSK31 operation it is a lot easier because the audio link problem does not have to be solved. Ham Radio Deluxe is be a good choice for rig control because it has PSK31 built in and UltraVNC will allow you to operate the shack computer from the laptop. The N4PY software also can be used for rig control, but you will have to use something else for PSK31. Bottom line - anything you can operate anything from the shack computer screen and keyboard can be available to you on any remote computer through UltraVNC (and it is freeware) - try it, you may like it. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > I would like to be able to control a rig and run various digital modes > remotely from my wireless network.
