[Elecraft] For the CW OPS

[ac5p at sbcglobal.net]

FYI, Don Huff, W6JL has successfully made a  wireless remote paddle/keyer for his all homebrew station.  He uses a commercially available IC chip for the TX and RX and it works on UHF link and 2-AA cells for power.  Gives freedom to move around the house and workshop along with RF cordless phones while maintaining a good QSO.   He said he had no interest in making it for commercial gain, but to our knowledge, no one else has done this.
He freely shared the schematic with me.   
Thought it may be worth considering for a possible commercial kit project, since it is a pretty novel application. 
73, Mike/ac5p

April Fool's.

But what the creators of this commercial may not realize is that there  
are real Morse apps in use for texting. In California you can't text  
and drive, but you could Morse and drive (eyes-free), so there may yet  
be a future in this.
