http://www.arrl.org/news/features/2002/02/04/2/?nc=1 ---------------------- Thank you Fujinaka-san! I enjoyed reading the article. I noticed one error for those tracking the famous (or infamous) mode B. The article said, "In 1981 Curtis found that many people liked the mode B keying characteristics of Ten-Tec, Heath, Nye, and Accu-keyers." I don't know about the others, but the Accu-Keyer was a mode "A" keyer, not a mode "B". I used a homebrew Accu-Keyer built straight from the QST article for 20 years. Since I reverted to a bug it's now sitting on the shelf, but still works as well as the day it built in the mid-1970's.
