There is an impedance mismatch between the Elecraft Hex Key and the K3
causing it to produce a ghost signal on harmonically related bands. I
believe this is a firmware bug in the paddle and am asking Elecraft to look
into this at once! I have tried to download the latest beta firmware for
this paddle from the FTP server but my Macintosh which runs Firefox ver.
br549 begins to send alternate dits and dahs. I am upset over the total lack
of support here.
BTW: I find that my Windom antenna works better on CW than on SSB. Could
this the short and long halves of the antenna be the cause?

Both the Elecraft Hex Key and the Brown Brothers BTL-A paddles work great.
I
like the stability of a paddle that has little or no vertical movement of
the paddle arms. The Hex key is heavy but the Brown Brothers is easier to
adjust.
