[Elecraft] simple iambic paddles

Well, actually, those clever paper clip paddles will only operate iambic
if you use the center post as ground.  That puts the part your fingers
touch at positive potential.  Probably not an issue, but I'd feel a bit
better if the finger pieces were ground.  That would require the center
piece to become 2 pieces.

And, boy is that design ever clever!  Very impressive.

Yes, I wasn't thinking about it, Eric: they are already set up to
operate an Iambic keyer.
