The physical size/layout of this keyboard is sold in a bunch of different variations.  I have two of them in the non-rechargeable version.  The size is perfect for using two keyboards on a small desk (which is my case).  It also has a full set of additional multimedia keys (Fn-Fx) that can do pretty much anything by re-assigning them using AutoHotKey.  And the touch/travel of the keys is just the right balance of resistance and distance.  Definitely a great contesting keyboard.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Great quality wireless keyboard/mouse

I have used a Microsoft ARC compact wireless keyboard for a number of years. About a year ago it started randomly  locking up and the only way to clear it was to disconnect one of one of the batteries and reconnect it. Could never find a solution.

A few months ago I found a compact wireless KBD on Amazon for $33.99. It’s listed as Keyboard Mouse, Jelly Comb 2.4 G Ultra Thin Rechargeable Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo for Desktop PC Computer.  It is 11” wide by 5 1/2 “ deep and 3/8 “ high. It has a metal base and a real quality look and feel. The tactile function is very responsive and reliable. The kbd has a built in battery, rechargeable via USB and  nice feeling mouse that uses a pair of AAA batteries.  I liked the ARC a lot but won’t look back after getting the Jelly Comb.
