The remote station project has (I think) reached completion. Recent additions include a USB hub and USB sound device. This will allow for decoding of HF Packet, etc.
I have installed a protection relay in the antenna line so when the radio is powered down the antenna is disconnected from the radio and shorted to ground.
The RTL-SDR addition is working well and the Wi-Fi Power Plug with Energy Monitoring is also a great addition. This enables me to see the current drain. For example, with the NUC running the current is around 250mA to 300mA and with it shut down that figure drops to about 70mA. When that is the case I can then remotely shut the whole system down safely.
The AH-4 Antenna Tuner just needs to be hooked in, and tested.
Then to relocate it to VK6. That could be the biggest challenge!
