Hi all,

A Ham new to CW asked me this question:

"Should I use coax to connect the key to the rig, or between
the paddles, keyer and rig?   Some people say it's a necessity,
others say it doesn't matter.  What is the answer?"

I DO use coax, because it's cured the odd rf feedback problem
I've had in the past, when using ill-natured antennas.

I thought it would be interesting to hear your views?

73, Gary ZL1AN.
