Operate your FlexRadio AURORA-510 remotely
RemoteMyShack puts your FlexRadio AURORA-510 in your browser: operate it from your phone, tablet or laptop at yourcall.remotemyshack.com, with two-way audio, its spectrum scope and waterfall, and the controls you use at the shack. A small agent on a computer next to the radio connects to it by Ethernet; there's no VPN or port forwarding to set up.
What works with the AURORA-510

| Spectrum scope | Yes: the radio's own scope and waterfall, streamed to your screen (more) |
| Remote power-on | No (which radios can) |
| Tested | Not by us yet: it uses the same commands as the FlexRadio radios we've tested and is expected to work |
FlexRadio Aurora AU-510: one receiver unit (FLEX-8400 platform). 500 W on 160-10 m and 200 W on 6 m, with a built-in tuner. Connects as its own SmartSDR client, alongside SmartSDR; the power meter reads to 500 W and PA faults are shown. Don't use an amplifier with it: RemoteMyShack won't pair a PowerGenius with it or put one in Operate. No network power switch.
What you can do from the console
- Tune, change band, mode, filter and DATA mode, and read the S-meter from your phone or laptop.
- Hear the radio, with two-way audio on transceivers: hold to talk, with automatic unkey if your connection drops.
- Adjust RF gain, preamp, attenuator, AGC, noise blanker and noise reduction where the radio has them; the radio's own speaker is turned down while the agent is connected. On a FlexRadio the RF gain slider sets SmartSDR's AGC threshold; on a Hermes Lite 2 it sets the receive gain (LNA).
- Send CW from the console with the radio's keyer (the agent keys a Hermes Lite 2 itself), and RTTY as audio.
- Every transmission is recorded in your transmit log.
Setting it up
Install the agent on a Mac, Windows or Linux computer, or a Raspberry Pi, next to the radio, link it to your account, and open yourcall.remotemyshack.com. These articles walk you through it:
