Fine Peter - have a look at this. Lets hope condx stay good.
Echolink - one of the new IP based radio communication tools
http://www.synergenics.com/   - you can download from there
Basically using a radio thru a local "node" often simplex two/432/70 
Mhz
gateways to communicate via the IP network worldwide.to other 
hams/pc's
repeaters...or direct PC to PC via dial up/cable to get to other 
repeaters
(GB3IE/BC or what ever) or ham links, such as G4FKK-L  (martins 4m 
link in
south london) You need a PC/laptop, a dial up cable connection speak 
and 
microphone and away you go
 
And it will work well on a connection of 26 K as is my case
good audio quality PC to PC and if connecting to a high speed
DSL user he can conference 5/7 folks at once. I see no reason 
why you couldn't connect your rcvr to one end and ARGO to the other 
to create a really remote rcv site. Would allow true real time viewing
from Alaska to GB as example
