Dennis,
I have a number of keys, both single lever and iambic and I most certainly
understand the arthritis comments. If I have been in the shop or out in the
yard and working with my hands, I am definitely QLF for a time afterwards. I
don't know that it really makes a difference whether I am on a single lever or
iambic key but I have found that either wider spacing between the thumb and
finger pieces or a wide single lever seems to be better suited to my stiff
hands. Try something as simple as a stick on footpad or rubber bumper to get
wider spacing and see how it feels. From there, you can fabricate a permanent
solution if it is to your liking. I intentionally omitted naming what I use,
choosing to focus on the width of the fingerpiece(s).
73,
Jim W5QM
