[Elecraft] CW Key Suggestions

[Phil Hystad]

I have a K8RA paddle.  In fact it was my first paddle and the one that I learned "paddle" on.  But, it has taken a back seat after I got my Begali.  I have it connected to my backup rig, an Icom 756 Pro III, so whenever I fire that up and go CW I am using the K8RA.  The key is engineered with quality but it misses the fine precision design and engineering of the Begali.  But, it is also a keeper.  I am seriously thinking of taking another plunge towards that N0SA key after I learn a little bit more about it.  What is life except for that period of time when you collect toys like finely designed and engineered keys.
