After he passed away, N2DAN's XYL sold the design and patent for the N2DAN paddle to Bencher. Both were reviewed last year in QST and very little difference was detected. The less expensive version (Elecraft) was reviewed in QST this year and is supposed to be very close in performance. Difference in finish and other features. But all are derivatives of the original Mercury.
Re: standard Bencher - had one, hated it, sold it. Now have a Vibroplex Brass Racer. so much better there is no comparison. -- 73, Carl, N9GC Quando omni flunkus, moritati. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
