[Elecraft] Keyer paddle setup

[Peter PA0PJE]

I normally use my right hand to send and, indeed, learned to use my thumb 
for dits. Electronically reversing the function and putting the paddle on my 
left, I can use my left hand without much training. My brain simply seems to 
cope with that...

72,
Peter
