Thanks for this idea. I prefer a foot switch, and I've already had one
of the Heil switches die on me in less than 2 years of use. Right now
I'm using one I got from Radiodan.com. The owner is a member of my club,
and I bought it at our annual HamFest. It looks to be of decent quality,
but I don't know his source. Anyway, if this one dies, I am definitely
going to try a sustain pedal. They typically have a switch which
switches the operation from on/off to a variable resistance (depending
on what you are using it for). It should work fine for PTT operation in
the on/off mode, and they are fairly rugged. I may have to try it soon
just to see how one would feel in actual operation.

kind of foot switch bands use is very rugged and reliable.
