Yes, I wasn't thinking about it, Eric: they are already set up to operate an Iambic keyer.
Perhaps "dual lever" is a more accurate description, but I see them most commonly referred to as "Iambic" paddles since that's the type of keyer they were originally designed to operate. Since Iambic keyers have become the norm, the simpler style of "single-action" paddles that cannot support the squeeze action required by Iambic keyers are becoming less common. At one time they dominated the paddle business, but they are still around. Here's one example: http://vibroplex.com/vibrokeyer.html Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eric Fairbank Sent: Friday, April 25, 2008 10:33 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Elecraft] simple iambic paddles Not sure what you mean by that. These paddles work just like my other dual lever paddles. The term "iambic paddle" is really a misnomer. Iambic refer's to the keyer, not the paddles.
