Link does not work, but I was able to google it. Also found the following link to a Dave Casler review of the paddle version. Apparently he also did a review of the straight key. Very interesting so far. Still watching. Mark > On Jan 7, 2021, at 6:53 PM, Rick Wannall via BVARC wrote: > >

Re: [BVARC] Morse Code Key

Jonathan, I could not have said it better myself. My covid income is giving me a new appreciation of my spending. I am an engineer, so I have been used to spending what I want. We used to be able to buy a J-38 for a couple of dollars. These days quality can be expensive. Maybe I should look

Agreed, but the keyers and bugs are so expensive for what they are. > On Jan 7, 2021, at 1:46 PM, Mark wrote: > > It takes LOTS of practice, practice - listening to how you send and > correcting to get GOOD. > > You know you are good, when finishing a qso, you are the one being called for >

Re: [BVARC] Morse Code Key

I just wanted to see if I was looking at the same keys that you were. Making a key is easy.  I once made a telegraph key from a peanut can and a couple of nails.  Making a good key is harder. On the other hand, spending three hundred dollars for a key is not something I'm going to do on a

Jonathan, Yes. There are three different models. They appear to be 3D printed. This also made me wonder if I shouldn’t fire up Inventor and design my own. These seem to be about the most reasonably priced keys, and I was really looking to see who might have experienced them. Thank you for your
