General discussion forum / solar powered, unmanned station
« on: 2012-08-12, 07:35:00 »
I have already partly constructed a remote station in a box close to the quad on a mountain. On/off switching takes place via a separate link. The intent is to leave Remote Rig, the TS-480 transceiver, and T-Mobile HotSpot with WiFi, powered OFF until the station is powered up. The TS-480 will happily start up with application of power, but I do not know if Remote Rig, and the HotSpot, will startup and configure themselves correctly, upon power-up. Does anyone have experience with this? Note I have used Kenwood SkyCommand in this application and it works, but it does not allow tuning over the band and it misses some important control functions which are all offered by RemoteRig, hence the planned upgrade to RemoteRig. Thanks, Peter, KQ6AA
