[Elecraft] Iambic Keying (WAS: Straight key first?)

[WILLIS COOKE]

The M/G is only slightly lighter (800 lbs) than the TBL (900 lbs) and is located 
on the main deck cabin just forward of the crew quarters and about75 ft aft of 
the radio room.  The TCE M/G is in the same compartment and only weighs about 
150 lbs.  I think of these 200 watt and 125 watt behemouths every time someone 
complains about the light weight of the K3.  This refers to the USS Stewart, 
DE238.  The TBL on the Cavalla was removed and replaced with a Collins URC-32 
SSB 500 watt transceiver during a Cold War retrofit.
