An old friend, who has been inactive for several years, recently purchased a used K3. This is the first transceiver that he’s owned that includes a built in keyer. He has always operated CW with a straight key. He has acquired Vibroplex paddles and wants to know whether to set the radio’s keyer for mode A or mode B iambic. He has never used an iambic keyer or a bug, before.
I learned iambic keying with a WB4VVF circuit board, back in the early 1970s, so mode B is what I prefer. I know there are a lot of died-in-the-wool CW people who frequent this list and I would like any opinions as to whether it is easier for a newbie to learn iambic mode A or mode B. I have no clue. Thanks in advance for any advice or opinions that I can pass along.
