American Morse Equipment. Obviously depends on your definition of
"cheap," but I use their Porta-Paddle with my K2 in the field.

I already have a good Vibroplex key paddle at home so I don't need
another high-quality one. The good ones seem to start at around $175,
which is way more than I want to pay for temporary use. I once made a
homebrew paddle made out of bent aluminum sheet metal and a pair of
micro switches for the dot and dash contacts. ("A Lightweight Homemade
Keyer Paddle", QST, July 2009). I was satisfied with that paddle, so
you can see that I am not obsessive about "feel".
So who makes a decent, inexpensive key paddle? (By the way, I don't
need the iambic feature, so a single-lever model would be fine.)
