Hi Frank. Straight keys are already pretty portable, and just about any one will do pretty well. I personally am a fan of the "Soviet" keys found on eBay since they have a cover that keeps the adjustments from getting banged around. If you're looking SUPER portable, look at the Palm Portable Key from Palm-Radio (www.palm-radio.de). While I have not used one myself, they are very small and are made for portable use. Another place to look is American Morse- they sell a kit for a straight key that is pretty small as well.
Good luck on your search for the perfect key, if you find it, let me know! I'm trying to find a portable paddle myself (that doesn't cost a fortune) 73 Tom W0EA On Jul 27, 2009, at 9:44 PM, Frank MacDonell wrote: > Thanks to all in advance. This reflector is fabulous.
