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. http://tinyurl.com/yac6c52
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 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
