[Elecraft] CW Setup

[Barry LaZar]

Bill,
     To make it simple, a single lever paddle works essentially like a 
dual paddle one, push to one side for dots and the other for dashes. For 
most operators, that is all that is needed. You will need to set the 
menu item for keyer to tip=dot, or reverse if you are left handed.

     If you are asking this question, iambic operation should not be your 
worry at this point. Just make sure you have a cable that is 2 conductor 
with a shield. One wire should go to the dot connection on the paddle 
and the other to the dash side. Just make sure to note which color you 
used for which. connect the dot side to the connect tip, the dash side 
to the ring, and the ground to the ground on the connector. You'll be 
ready to go.

     Your next problem will be to get the feel, setting sending speed, 
and adjusting the screws and adjustments on the paddle so it feels good 
to you. Start slowly and work up.
