Jim;

It is mostly a matter of personal preference.  "Personally", I don't 
like squeeze keyers.  As you might remember from being in my shack, I 
have 2-straight keys, 3-semiautomatic bugs, 1-Vipbroplex keyer paddle, 
and a Heath "Micro-matic Keyer".  All seven of these are hooked up to my 
OMNI VI/3 and I can switch between any of them literally between 
letters.  My favorites are my original "Skillman Deluxe" straight key 
that I have had since 1960, and my Vibroplex "Presentation" Gold plated 
bug.  I don't really like electronic keyers and have used them only on 
very rare occasions.

Reid, K7YX

I'm about to buy my first keyer in many years. I'm thinking about an iambic.
Any
recommends?
