Rich, I have a IC-7300 and have followed your information about my rig for the last few months. Very good work and very helpful. Please cover in detail and the set up of the 7300 with the RigPi server as this is what I would like to set up at my cabin which is on a 1000ft. hill in upstate New York. I’m sure I’m not the only one who wants to do something like this. Thanks for all your help.
Hi Mario,
Nice to hear from you and thank you so much for commenting. I got a little information from the website and I have been in contact with Howard who will be out at Hamvention and demonstrating it. So I will get as much as I can while I am there. It looks very interesting to me and I think is something I could use with the 7300.

Hi Rich,
Love all of your videos. I attended the 2019 Dayton Hamvention on Saturday morning. As I pulled up in line to get into the parking area you pulled right in front of me in your Red Jeep with the huge antenna and your call on the license plate!! I wanted to catch you to say HI but couldn’t keep up with you. An eyeball contact would have been nice.
