Hi Ari;
I am not an expert, but I will share my feelings. If you are ever going to
use any going to use any thing other than a straight key, start out with it
right away. I used a straight key for a while, then went to an IAMBIC key,
and had to learn all over again. I love the IAMBIC keyer now that I am used
to it.
73 and good luck, Paul K9PEP
