The Palm Mini paddle is a very well thought out and nicely engineered package; one of the best features is how the mechanism is completely protected by the case when not in use. The ability to mount it in various ways and positions is a nice plus.
It's very adjustable and amenable to a light or heavy touch. The overall feel is a little "soft" - the arms are made of something like PC board material and the paddles themselves have a soft surface, so there is some give in the motion after the contacts close. For me, the benefits of the packaging outweigh the less-than-perfect touch - especially for backpacking. 73 de chris K6DBG _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
