Probably you haven't received any answer is because this is not necessarily the type of radio
that one would use with RemoteRig. The true "power" of RemoteRig is using a remote control
head to operate a rig with the true feeling of being in front of the radio. The FT-847 would require
full software control, for example using HRD.
The advantage the RemoteRig would give in this situation would be CW paddle support, excellent
SIP based audio and latency, as well as virtual serial ports. If these items are not important to you
and you want to stick with the FT-847, then you could just as well use a remote PC and Skype, if
that is all you need. If the CW paddle support is not important, but the others are, then use the
RRC PC Client and save on the control RRC.
You can use the tuner built into the rig for most purposes. If you need another solution, e.g. with
an amplifier or for twin lead, then that is a different subject and we can point you to some earlier
threads on that subject.
