[Elecraft] recommendations for CW paddles under $125

[Don Wilhelm]

Neil,

That all depends on your interpretation of "best".  Please provide the 
parameters for what you want in your paddles, and you will likely 
receive a better answer.
I think my N3ZN single lever paddle is best for me, but it certainly 
cost a lot more than $125.
There is a lot of personal tradeoffs that depend on a lot of things 
related to your tactile sensation.  Some would be able to homebrew 
paddles from 2 hacksaw blades and some contacts salvaged from relays, 
while others would never be happy with something like that.
You might want to peruse the portable paddles used by QRPers if you are 
into obtaining effective paddles at a low price.
If you have the Elecraft KX2 or KX3, you might want to consider the 
KXPD2 or KXPD3 - both are under your target price.

73,
Don W3FPR
