I'll try asking a similar question at the next club meeting but I suspect everybody uses iambic here, new ops included. By the way, when I met Lazlo HA3NU (a guy who sets the keyer to 60wpm and calls it "slow" ;-) at a big italian hamfest in Pordenone a few weeks ago, he said he preferred single lever paddles, especially for truly extra-high speeds. Your comments and his, taken together, have convinced me that all is well 8-) B73, Andrea. -- Homepage: http://andrea.borgia.bo.it / Amateur radio: IZ4FHT _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
