MFJ 490 Deluxe Memory CW Keyer:

The MFJ 490 CW keyer is designed to be attached
to the back of a Bencher paddle. It has 5 easy to
program memories, plus a variety of other special
functions.

Select a menu by pressing a button. LED lights
indicate which menu is active. Menu is
clearly printed on top panel. Save and play
messages, decrement serial numbers, set speed,
weight, sidetone, enter Iambic, semi-auto, handkey,
message queue, paddle command modes, turn
sidetone on/off, transmitter tune, set keying
output on/off, select iambic A/B, reverse, and
store starting serial number for contests, etc.

Bypass menu function, tells status in CW. Adjust
speed (5-100 wpm), by pressing paddle smoothly

Bencher BY-1 Iambic CW Paddle:

The legendary BY-1 paddle has graced many ham
shacks worldwide. You set the spring tensioning,
with no adjustments to make other than desired
contact spacing. It has a light touch for sending
clean code, but is heavy enough to not walk
around the table.

The adjustment wrench is held under the base.

This one is the newer style. It works great,
is in its original box, and might be new.

Only $80.
.

.
McElroy "Stream Key" CW Straight Key:

This McElroy "Stream Key" is often considered the best
straight key ever made. I won't go quite that far, but
it certainly is one of the best. Extremely good action.

This one is the one with the black crinkle base, and is
sometimes referred to as the model 200. It was
probably made between 1940 and 1943.

This one really works great.
Buy it for only $99.
.

.
Matric Model 10 A, Electronic Keyer:

The Matric 10 A keyer is in a 4 wide x 2 high x 5
deep enclosure. It has a speaker on the top for
the sidetone, and has a switch to select either +
or - keying. It can be powered by either 12 V DC
or by a 9 volt battery.

This one is a tech special. It produces a nice solid
closure, with a solid tone, showing that the sidetone
is working great. Just no dits or dahs.

Only $5.
