[Elecraft] NO audio - Remote Ham Radio Deluxe 3.5

[Alan D. Wilcox]

Hello,
HRD runs fine remotely over my LAN. The host (server) PC is connected
(via COM1) to the K3.
But ...
Minor detail escapes me: the K3 audio isn't getting to me at the remote PC.

Audio output from the K3 goes into the host PC sound card, then comes
out to a couple speakers local to the K3. I would assume that the HRD
remote server would pickup that audio and ship it out over the LAN to be
streamed to my remote PC along with the HRD display. Seeing the radio
remotely is nice I suppose, but not much good if I can't hear it!

I'm not too familiar with HRD yet, so I'm sure this is a simple option
or setting I'm missing. Didn't see anything in the help file.

Thanks for insight,
Alan

From the HRD server docs: "The remote server does not support audio. For

audio (or VOIP) the following options are available: SKYPE ? www.skype.com,
MSN Messenger, Audio streaming ? for example the Helix Server ? Basic from
RealNetworks Inc. ? www.realnetworks.com ."

There's another option that I tried once because it even supports audio to a
PocketPC client: Microsoft Portrait.

Also if you download the trial version of the LakeOfSoft VC components for
Delphi, there are precompiled demo programs that can be used to stream audio
between two computers. Perhaps someone should buy Simon a copy so he can
incorporate this into HRD itself. :)

Thanks, Julian. Simple answer that I didn't see in the doc. Not what I
wanted to hear tho!

Searched and found "IP-Sound" at
http://www.dxzone.com/catalog/Software/Radio_Control/
The program was written for just such a situation.

Thanks again,
Alan

Someone just sent me a link to that, too.
http://xoomer.alice.it/ham-radio-manuals/IPS-v0.57a-Finale.zip . I presume
it is the same thing. I haven't tried it, but perhaps someone will find the
link useful.

Alan,

I am using HRD and IP sound for a 6 meter SSB remote base. Only problem
is that the radio is a TS-2000, and the site is screaming for a K3 on 6!

SOLUTION:
Loaded IP-Sound v0.57a (newest I could find) and it's running perfectly.
(Listening to CHU at 7335 at the moment.)

I really like the K3's pseudo-stereo feature, so I'm doing the PCM 8kHz
stereo codec. It reports using about 33 kB/s bandwidth on the LAN (which
is wireless down to the radio).

Still yet to do: figure out HRD and how to do CW and PSK31 remotely.

http://xoomer.alice.it/ham-radio-manuals/IPS-v0.57a-Finale.zip is the
IP-Sound that I used.

Alan,
I'm in EXACTLY the same situation as you are. HRD is FB on my laptop via my LAN, but no audio is available.
If you get skype or some other audio program to work for you, I'd really appreciate hearing from you about how you got it to work via your LAN. I tried my best to get that done a few months ago, but finally decided I was wasting too much time in a fruitless effort even with some other hams who tried to help.
Thanks es 73,
Steve Banks
