But they don't include the third mode - Iambic OFF. This would allow the use of twin paddles without the keyer trying to insert anything at all by itself. Long time user of single paddles and struggling to use a twin paddle. Don't care what the iambic mode is, I never ever want to use it.. 73 Dave G3YMC http://www.davesergeant.com _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
