Hi All,
I wonder if I made an assembly error when putting together my KXPD1 paddle.
Its action is very stiff.  I need to hold the radio to be able to apply
enough pressure to make the dots and dashes.  If you look at this SQ5M video
that I found on YouTube the action is very light.

I would love to have my paddle action just as light as SQ5M's.  Any
suggestions?  The springs are curved outwards and appear to be very stiff.
I notice that Figure 6 in the manaul shows a flat spring.  Could this be the
reason the action is stiffer?  I am hesitant to pull up the silver wires a
bit until I get some feedback from other users.

Thanks,
Steve Pituch, W2MY
