Kristinn:

I bought one of these recently, and have really been enjoying it:

You can get it with or without the base. I bought the base, and was glad I did, but you can mount the paddles on just about anything with the two mounting holes.

I had to do just a slight amount of "adjusting" with some fine-grit sandpaper and a drill bit, but I'm very pleased with the solid feel, and the size is just right for me, with no real compromises in performance. I've been using it both portable and at home with my K2, and am very pleased with it. For what it's worth, I had to wait about 14 days for delivery. You may want to ask about shipping/delivery times to your QTH.

I would definitely buy this one again.

American Morse is also the recommended supplier for a very nice CNC enclosure for the Small Wonder Rockmite QRP transceiver. I also ordered one of these, and am very pleased with it.

My K2 #6425 is now up and running, and I need good, light/small portable
iambic paddles for the upcoming summer trips.  Are there any good
recommendations?

Candidates I have been looking at include:
- Palm Mini Paddles  (http://www.morsex.com/palm)
- Paddlette PK1 (http://www.paddlette.com/pkproduct.htm)
- Paddlette BP (http://www.paddlette.com/bpproduct.htm)

Does anyone have experience, or even comparison on these or others that would be suitable for portable operation? My preference for "feel" is that
the I prefer "harder/metallic" touch when making contact over "softer"
touch, that I have found with some paddles.
