Joe;

The remote access I was referring to would start out as remote access from
the production room only. So that shouldn't be a concern for putting the
transmitter control software on the automation machine.

I agree with your concern, however, if and when we get to the point of
allowing remote access to the automation computer from outside the IMC.
