[CW] Frattini Bug (Jim Garrison)

[Bruce Prior]

Jim, if you're in the market for a high-end bug, you might consider the completely new Intrepid design by Pietro Begali:

I haven't operated the Intrepid, and I'd be a poor judge, since I never got the hang of semi-automatic bug operating.  However, all ten of the reviews in e-ham are glowing:

A key is to a CW operator like footwear is to a runner or hiker.  The Intrepid is not cheap, but it will probably outlast your current transceiver by many years
Good luck in your search.
My favorite key is the Begali Sculpture Mono http://www.i2rtf.com/html/sculpture_mono.html .
