Since this post was published :link: [another version appeared](https://radiomail.app/news/radiomail-1.3/)

that also includes the possibility to **remotely start and control VARA HF** and **VARA FM**
|
|
|
|
|
applications on a **headless** Windows or Linux **miniPC** (or notebook, or Raspberry Pi --
|
|
|
|
|
whatever device can run VARA apps as long as it in the same network as your iOS device).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The tool used for this is called **Varanny** and auto-fills the remote hosts data into
|
|
|
|
|
your RadioMail configuration just with a tap of your finger -- it starts the desired VARA
|
|
|
|
|
application on the remote host with the pre-defined configuration, so you can easily swap
|
|
|
|
|
configurations as you swap your rigs. A fantastic solution!
