Ralph,
I do not have a single lever paddle for sale, but I suffer from similar
problems. If you cannot find a decent single lever paddle at a price
your ham budget can afford (the Bengali is outside my price range), I
suggest that you try one of the K1EL keyers in Ultimatic mode - it works
for me - it makes a standard paddle respond almost like a single lever
paddle, press the dash and it gives dashes, press the dot and out comes
a dit - it just feels right to my brain.
I have been asking periodically that the Elecraft built-in keyers
support Ultimatic mode for folks like us, but so far, it has been low on
the priority list (but is not being ignored).
73,
Don W3FPR

Well I think I do. I bought a Vibroplex back in 1950 and got used to it.
I tried to go iambic in the mid 70s and failed, tried again with the K1 in 2003 (mode a). Using an iambic key is too many mistakes for me.
I optained an MK-33 Whiterook single lever key and it works well, but has no adjustment and is not heavy enought to stay put without putting my other hand on it to hold it.
So any comments from Kent single lever key owners?
Does anyone want to sell one?
Does anyone in the US sell them?
Thanks,
