RemoteTx puts a Raspberry Pi next to the radio and does the rest in the cloud. The Pi image is a free download; the 3B, 3B+ and 4B are supported, the Pi 5 is not. Control and two way audio arrive in a plain browser at your own address, callsign.remotetx.net, with no plugins, no Mumble and no port forwarding, so a carrier grade NAT line is not a problem. Traffic runs about 80 kbps, which holds up on a phone. Supported rigs include Icom IC-705, 7100, 7200, 7300 and 7610 with scope, Yaesu FT-991/A and Elecraft KX2, KX3 and K3s, plus Yaesu rotators.
There is a 30 day trial, and a cancelled subscription refunds $5 for every unused month. Fine for one operator with one modern rig who wants a setup that just works. Owners of Kenwood gear or older radios are out of luck, and audio sometimes needs a manual restart after the network drops.
