Dave this is actually a very good idea. I did an informal survey in my
local QRP club and was surprised at the number of paddle users that
didn't use iambic capabilities (I think that I was the only iambic user
out of
about 10 people ).
A know a number of keyer users that resort to using a single paddle
with their
keyers for this very reason.
