Which one?

This is something like the guy with more than one watch, he never knows what 
the time really should be.

There is so much discussion about the two paddles it seems to me they both are 
good and it really comes down to just which one an operator owns to use.  (Yes, 
read reports from owners of both but could not read a specific reason one was 
chosen over the other - in the same operating scenario.)

So where I’m coming from is I’ve never used either.  I learned on a Vibroplex 
Lightening Bug but now with the advent of electronic keyers don’t want to dig 
it out to really use.  And am wondering if it makes any difference which I get 
when ordering a new radio.  Ie, which would be the easiest to take up and use 
considering my experience.  At this time I'm thinking the “3” because it has a 
longer pivot arm - maybe the same or close to the what the bug has.  This might 
not really be all oranges though since the fore arm will most likely just 
rotate instead pushing the dash lever with finger movement along with the arm 
movement as with the bug.

Guess when I order a radio I’ll just order its specifically designated 
components - unless there is something constructive to be said by anyone?

P.S.  Someone specifically wrote the beveled paddle pads on the “2” were more 
comfortable.
