[Elecraft] Why is K2 so easy to send cw with?

[EricJ]

I was in the automotive and motorcycle industry for 30 years and we used to
refer to a "happy motor". Two identical motors can "feel" different. Both
can be producing to specs, but one just seems to be laboring to do it while
another is more "willing"...happy. I can't describe it, but we've all felt
it.

You probably hit on the difference Tim is experiencing. I don't know
anything about the 706 either, but I've had my share of Japanese rigs and
the K1 and K2 on CW just feel...happy! Heh heh heh.

So my guess (I admit I know nothing about a 706) is that maybe its the
clunking and clatter distraction that detracts from the 706 cw enjoyment
when compared with the virtues of the K2...
