OK.? Well, I seem to recall that someone was successful using a Raspberry Pi in the shack, running serial to ethernet,
so that my remote operating position, a windows 10 machine, could run the HF Auto PC App, as well as the Node Red
UI in a web browser.? ?I assume that would work?

The HF Auto flow requires W1TR’s HF Auto app running on a PC. This is because Paul at Palstar will not release the communications protocol. That is Paul’s prerogative since he holds the intellectual property rights to the tuner.

For the HF Auto Flow and connection, do you need to keep a windows machine running to support the HF Auto connection,
or have you used something like ethernet to serial over a Raspberry Pi?? I like the way your flow/dashboard looks for the HF Auto,

I've done some playing with the HF-Auto flow and have changed the layout see screenshot below, as well I've added some audio alarms. Audio warning of high SWR. I grabbed a screenshot while HF-Auto was tuning.

After I created a flow of my Ambient Weather Station, I pulled critical data from it and displayed it side-by-side withe the PSTrotator flow so I can see the wind direction/speed/gusts in case I wanted to move the rotator accordingly or go out to lower the US Tower MA850 into a safer lower position. I also added audio warnings when wind gust start approaching dangerous levels. Pretty easy to do, the play audio node give you a choice of a male or female voice, sorry no trans voice for those who may ask. You simply give the play audio node a payload to say whatever you want. I've just setup 2 for now for testing. When gusts go 40km to 50km it says "Wind warninig gusts of 40km", when it reaches above 50km I have it saying, "Hey dumbass you better to outside and lower the tower". Could easily make the rotator follow the wind direction, but then do I really want to?

Hi everyone,

WIth many of us running remote stations and some of us taking part in multi-op contests, I wonder if there is a way to use NR as an interlock to ensure that there is only one station transmitting a band at once? To do ths over WAN would be very useful for distributed contest efforts that allow in band.working, but only one tx signal at a time.
NR might be the wrong tool for this job thinking about it some more, but the groups is pushing the boundaries all the time, so I though I would ask!

Cheers
