After a lifetime of Vibroplex keys/paddles I got a Begali Simplex a few
years back. The N3ZNs look nice, but the Begali is the finest paddle I have
ever used at any station. Too bad both companies don't have the 30-day
return policy that Ten-Tec does; you could A/B them.

Good luck,
Stan, W4AG

Please excuse my going OT, but let's face: Ten-Tecs are respected by CW ops
the world-over so I think this may be the best place to look.

Is anyone out there using both an iambic N3ZN and Begali?  I expect by the
end of the year I'll upgrade my Vibroplex Square Racer (magnetic) and these
two seem to be the most likely suspects.  Of course the dollar-euro relation
adds weight to the N3ZN argument; the curves of The Sculpture are tempting.

So if you are using, or for some time have used both of these and have
comments to share, I would certainly appreciate that.
