Hello Bruce,

That's a fabulous key - and I2RTF makes fabulous keys - I hear him often on
a bug of his own manufacture.  He loves Morse - and it shows in his keys.

You can make very smooth sounding Morse on a dual lever paddle with an
iambic type keyer.  I've lost most of my iambic ability though because I
rarely use a keyer any more - I've gone back to bugs, side swipers and hand
keys - mostly to let the new comers have some different music of Morse in
their ears.

But you are selling a fabulous key!
