Eric,

   Here's the info from my original post.
This is the best constructed and ergonomically perfect switch I have
ever seen in my 39 years of operating and contesting!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
     
Linemaster  Model Gem-V2
www.linemaster.com
 
860 974-1000
 
Circular - Easy to hit from all angles
 
Perfect touch - you can lightly rest your foot on edge of it
                           and not false trigger but then a light
additional amount of additional pressure
                           keys it and no "cramped" or "tired" foot as
the hours wane on
 
Great Weight and Non Skid corrugated base  - Will not move around too
easily
so no worry about it not staying in position.
 
Nice appearance with chrome ringed edge and easy hit circular top target
area.
 
I expect it will easily last 10+ years for heavy contest use.
 
You can purchase with or without cable. I found the supplied cable listed
on teh web
page to be too heavy and cumbersome so I installed my own thinner and
very flexible
cable and saved another $6 on the price.
 
The Gem-V2 will cost you just under $30 including shipping/handling.
 
Note: Since they normally have a $100 minimum, I requested my switch
as a sample for 60 day evaluation and had it mailed to me at my work
address.
That way you avoid the $100 minimum 
 
You may also want to check with your contest buddies or club members and 
order enough to meet the $100 minimum order. 
 
I have no pecuniary interest in Linemaster  Co. Products
