TCIP CAT Control for K4

[af1e]

It would be great to be able to use TCIP CAT control for the Elecraft K4. See picture on how I connect WSJTX to my K4D. Works great and eliminates a comm port. Current TCIP CAT in Log4OM does not work even if I specify my K4's IP instead of its network name.

Doesnt Hamlib ir Omnirig have a rig ini for the K4?

Both Hamlib and Omnirig support the K4 fine and I have used that, but using the Ethernet port instead of the serial connections would allow operation from a computer that is not hooked to the radio. I can accomplish this using Win4K4Suite but that adds a level of complexity.

Too bad the K4 doesn't have TCI capability, that works great here. I have Log4OM, JTDX, my rig Anan 7k DLE MKII and amp RF-kit; controlled via TCI.
Only issue is the Anan software does not implement the TCI audio protocols, that's used for digital modes. I still have to use VAC for audio control.
