[Elecraft] high end paddles

[Darwin, Keith]

For a number of years I used the Bencher paddles and was happy.  Then I
got wind that there was something better.  I picked up a used pair of
Kent paddles and guess what, they are definitely better than the
Benchers.  Benchers have a squishy / flexible feel, Kent is solid.

I recently picked up a good straight key (Junker) and it is a lot nicer
than the Speed-X I had been using.  The action is noticeably smoother
and crisper.  It all has me thinking about some nicer paddles.

Of course, I use the straight key more than the paddles so I'm not
making any changes right now.

worked great for years.
