[Fists] Renewed CW interest

[John]

I would like to thank everyone who offered their advice.

What I decided to do was purchase a straight key (ordered a Kent Hand key
kit...love the way it looks and hope it performs as well) and continue to
work the paddles.  
I will stay with the paddles until my efficiency improves and then I will go
back to the key.  I will also incorporate the CMOS-4 as I like all of the
memory options and more specific control.

Thank you again and maybe we can meet on CW soon !!

John

Hi John - welcome back into the fraternity!  There is certainly
nothing wrong with going back to the straight key.  There are plenty
of us on the FISTS frequencies that use them day to day.
The Vibroplex has a nice feel to it, is big, weighty,  and a nice
performer.  But of course it always boils down to personal taste.

Hope to hear you on the bands soon!
