[nrv-hams] Anyone have a paddle for sale?

[J.C. Hassall]

Hey Cam,
Tnx for the links.  The project on the blog is really interesting.  I like
his specs, too, although mine won't go to 99 WPM. :-) When I went for my
Novice test, the FCC examiner said he wanted to limber up his wrist.  The
next thing I heard was a buzz, which completely blew my mind and I had to
struggle to get my stuff together to pass.  So, needless to say, 99 WPM is
in the stratosphere for me (and most mere mortals :-)  ).

Thankfully Len came thru for me with both a straight and a paddle.  So I'll
have the "sending units" long before the controller is ready.  More
incentive to get the ball rolling.

The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are
willing to work and give to those who would not.
Thomas Jefferson

I sometimes feel bad for the smart people - being simple-minded and easily
entertained is totally the way to go! ;-)
