Build Your Own Remote HF Station with the IC-7760
Firmware update for the IC-7760 offers remote operation over the Internet or a home LAN connection (Wired or Wi-Fi®)
- Place the RF deck in your radio shack and operate a full-scale remote with the control head from a separate location.
- Even with network delay or jitter, the IC-7760 adjusts its buffer to ensure precise signal transmission and CW keying.
- The optional RC-7760 Remote Controller is available as an additional control head.
- Up to 5 control heads can be registered to the RF deck. Only one of the control heads connects to the radio and takes control at a time.
- Commercially available Wi-Fi access points can be connected to the LAN port for a wireless connection.
A stable Internet connection is required with speeds of at least 4 Mbps from the RF deck to the controller, and at least 2 Mbps from the controller to the RF deck, when all “Output Select” settings in the “Connectors” menu — including “USB AF/IF Output,” “LINE-OUT AF/IF Output,” and “LAN AF/IF Output” — are set to “AF” (default setting). If any of them is set to “IF,” a minimum of 7 Mbps is required from the RF deck to the controller.
A VPN connection or Port Forwarding using with either a global static IPv4 address or dynamic DNS (DDNS) is necessary for Internet access.
Restrictions may apply based on your network con guration. Brief audio dropouts may occur due to packet loss.
