Two Radio Local/Remote Split Operation

lvplummer

I like to operate portable from local parks and beaches to enjoy the great outdoors and to have a very low noise floor compared to may home QTH. However when I am operating portable, I am limited to 100 watts barefoot power. It is very common for me to be able to hear stations that can't hear me.

It would be great to be able to combine the benefits of portable operation - enjoying the outdoors and low noise - with higher power deliverd by my Mercury IIIS at home.

My portable setup includes a cellualar 5G router so Internet access to my home radio is not a problem. I have the plumbing for remote operation configured and optimized. I can fully operate either my local portable Flex 6300 or my remote Flex 6400 with amp at home. I can even run two copies of SmartSDR at the same time to have both radios online at the same time.

I would like to have the best of both. I would like to be able to transmit higher power using my remote home radio while receiving using my local portable one. At the minimum, I would like transmitting on the remote home radio to cause the local radio to mute. In the ideal world, CAT would cause the frequency of the two radios to track.

Is there a way to configure SmartSDR for this setup or is there third-party software to perform this function?
