I think I'd like to see Ultimatic mode too, I'm thinking I'll have to
learn Iambic though, because most rigs don't support Ultimatic.
But Ultimatic does sound like the easier and frankly, more logical mode.
Maybe I'll have to borrow a friends keyer to give it a try.

Ralph,
I do not have a single lever paddle for sale, but I suffer from
similar problems. If you cannot find a decent single lever paddle
at a price your ham budget can afford (the Bengali is outside my
price range), I suggest that you try one of the K1EL keyers in
Ultimatic mode - it works for me - it makes a standard paddle
respond almost like a single lever paddle, press the dash and it
gives dashes, press the dot and out comes a dit - it just feels
right to my brain.
I have been asking periodically that the Elecraft built-in keyers
support Ultimatic mode for folks like us, but so far, it has been
low on the priority list (but is not being ignored).
