I believe the manual for the keyers can be downloaded from their website - that should address the voltage/current limits and then you'll able to tell whether or not it's safe to use with the Drakes. The issue with these keyers is not their quality or endurance, but rather your ability to adapt to the keyer. I got to the point with one where I could send fairly well, but it was then very difficult to move back and forth between the touch paddle and a normal paddle. If you decided to never again use a regular paddle, perhaps you could adapt to the touch keyer and do well with it. I ended up selling mine.

Does anyone know if the TouchPaddle.com keyers will work with Drake "tube" transceivers? Are these keyers worth their cost in quality and endurance? Thank you. PHILIP AB8ZP
