Hi,

I have a "Like New" Bencher BY-1 (Black-Chrome) paddle that I bought so 
that I could get "back into CW".  However, the arthritis in my fingers 
and hands has messed up my timing so much that I'm not able to 
effectively use it. Many hours of practice proved that to me.

I will sell it AND a very nice HOMEBREWED Curtis Chip Keyer with the 
following characteristics.

Keyer Info:
1.  Curtis one chip Keyer with EITHER A or B Iambic keying.
2.  Internal Sidetone speaker.
3.  Following input on the keyer.
    A.  Normal Paddle input.    
    B.  Computer RS-232 input to allow you to ALSO key your rig from 
your computer logging program (good for contesting).
    C.  Also has an input for a standard straight key, makes it an "all 
in one" connection point for your CW operations.
    D.  Controls for CW speed, CW weight, Power, Sidetone Off/On and 
computer interface Off/On.
4.  Key output to transceiver keys standard Positive key-lines as used 
in all modern solid state transceivers.
5.  Runs on standard 12VDC  or I'm sure you could put a connector for a 
9 Volt battery on it (I set ALL my gear up for 12 Volt operation).

Asking $65.00 Money Order for ALL, which includes Paddle, Keyer AND 
Priority Shipping via USPS. (The Paddle is worth that).
