Hey All,

I am looking for a good straight key. I have used mostly keyers and 
Iambic paddles (Bencher / Vibroplex) for a long time. I was wondering if 
I could get an idea of what you all think is the BEST straight key. I am 
looking for the best feel or action. I have an old Signal Company key - 
but it is not very smooth.

I hope I am making myself clear?

I do not want to tie up the reflector - so please e-mail me directly at:

Thanks
