[Elecraft] OT: HexKey

[Ken Kopp]

Reference has been made to the "spongy" feel of
the HexKey, and I used to agree.  IMHO I'm a pretty
good CW op with 60+ years behind me.  Even made
a living at sea with CW.

I was -very- disappointed with my HexKey and was 
about to put it on eBay.  Couldn't seem to send error-
free CW and at attributed it to my old poop's arthritis.  

After pondering awhile and watching intently to see what 
I might be doing wrong, I realized that the HexKey was 
moving ever-so-slightly.  Simply put, it was "wobbling" 
on it's "soft" feet.

I changed the feet to ones made from firmer material 
and now the HexKey is great.  The firmer feet cured 
the problem.
