When I made my initial post yesterday, I forgot to mention some very
pertinent information about the device.
The theory and pictures of the McElroy original device can be seen at
http://artifaxbooks.com/dotstabilizer.htm and Tom French, W1IMQ who owns
and maintains that historical site, graciously posted links to several
pictures of the ones that I make, mounted on 3 different make & models
of my own bugs along with my email address. You can find the pictures
and links near the bottom of that page.
The ones I currently make are specifically for the Vibroplex, Speed-X
and McElroy keys that have the pendulum that the weights slide on. At
this time, I do not make them for those with the flat pendulum such as
the Vibroplex Lightning Bug, Champion or the old military J-36 bugs. I
do, however, have a prototype in "beta test" that I believe will fit the
flat pendulum keys so hopefully I'll be able to offer one for those
models in the very near future.
Hope this clears up any questions.
