I sent Larry an email saying I would like to order the SP2 paddle His response:
Rick Thank you for your interest in my paddles. I believe my last SP paddle has just been sold. I am waiting to hear back from the person about the sale. If he decides not to buy then you can have it. I am in the process of retiring so I am selling all the paddles I already have built. After that I will continue to build on a very limited basis and just list what I have for sale. No more waiting list and no custom orders. I will just build for fun. 73's and I will let you know what happens with the SP. Larry Naumann n0sa So I guess the paddles will become difficult to get ahold of now. 73, Rick W3BI > Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2012 06:23:00 -0500 > From: wrmoor...@gmail.com > To: phys...@mac.com > CC: ed.g...@comcast.net; elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] CW Key Suggestions > > Phil, > > On the SP1/2, there is only one lever, and both finger pieces are > attached to it.
