[Elecraft] Right paddle on my KXPD2 issue

[Brian Hunt]

I have experienced this too. Cleaning the contact with a small strip of paper helps for a while. I'm wondering if the contact closure current may be too low to overcome the slight surface corrosion that develops over time. 

When not in use I store the KXPD2 in the mesh pocket of the CS-40 case. 

Adjusting the contact spacing narrower allows less travel and seems to make the problem worse, widening it makes it better but doesn't eliminate the problem.
