I have to admit that I don't have redundancy in this matter. Mark me down for a
whole bunch of demerits. I made my first paddle for a homebrew TO keyer out of
wood with TWO strips of aluminum because it felt and played better. There was
no iambic at that time (that I knew of). Maybe a fat paddle is what I need. I
never ever heard anyone complain when I called them in a contest. Straight keys
for SSCW, anyone?
I guess what we should all be railing about is what the best keyboard is for
doing RTTY, huh?
