Most of the CW ops I know prefer the Iambic keys.

I just spent many hours on a Navy straight key so kept with what felt
comfortable.

I have that problem occaisionally with a bencher single paddle key

I'll try that. There is an adjustment spring, but perhaps it is a little
weak and should be replaced.

I like the contact spacing paper thin, but when it is too thin -- may
cause a double bounce.

Yes Bencher does make a single paddle key -- looks like the Iambic with
two paddles -- but functions as a single paddle key.


That sort of key sounds logical to me. Although I'm starting to "get" the
Iambic, it still seems a little strange. I should probable see if I et a
little better before switching again.

Thanks, Mike KB3EIA -
