Lately I've used my straight key for CW most of the time.  In prep for
field day I've been hitting the paddles a bit to try to get my fist
back.  I was also trying to decide whether or not to use my external
Idiom CMOS-4 keyer or the internal K2 keyer.  So, true to form, I did
some testing with both last night.
 
I tried sending at 25 wpm (fast for me) with the K2's keyer in both
Iambic A and B modes.  I made just a few less mistakes using B but it
was hard to tell the difference.
 
I then switched to the Logikey CMOS-4 keyer and found my error rate went
down just a little bit.  The change was small and in fact may be "noise"
but I found the Logikey followed me (or I followed it) just a bit better
than the K2's internal keyer.
 
Anyone else have similar (or different) results with internal vs.
external keyers?
