[Elecraft] Re: KX1- Operation - Zero Beat [pitch match]

[Jay Blass]

Thanks Wayne, I can live with that, just wanted to make sure that I had the
"switchology" correct.

By the way, I LIKE the KXPD1 paddle. Perhaps it is because I haven't spent
decades sending CW on a particular paddle, but it feels natural to me, much
more friendly than a loose tolerance Codewarrior Junior that I was using
with the K1.

Next project is going to be adapting the KXPD1 to the K1 somehow...maybe a
threaded backing inside that will let me mount it on the right side of the
case.

Unless of course, you have a little mini module KXPD1 to K1 adapter in the
works!

Thanks for the all of the fun you are generating with you designs.
