Gents;
I'm in the process of relearning how to use a paddle, having only
gotten the feel of a Vibroplex keyer three decades back from an old pal.
I'm now stumbling around with a Bencher paddle, the first of the line
that's of the "fall apart" design, and thus I have to be careful about
how I handle it, which distracts me from training myself to use "thumb
for dashes, finger for dits", and my brain isn't as young as it used to
be to do multitasking. Thus the question - does the Elecraft/Bencher
Hexkey actually perform better than "the original", and thus make the
price worth adding to my gear? I'd really like to have more versatility
in sending, not worrying about knocking the contact points off their
mounts, which are conical points for hinges, and the darn things are an
annoyance to have to remount.
Any input will be appreciated, many hours to go before I can become
fluent with my old favorite CW again, having been too lazy to get away
from voice until now!
Tnx, 73's
