to use features, and changind speede is as easy asy with a pot I think. Hold the programming key and tap the dot or dash paddles for up or down in 2 wpm incrrements, easy peasy. It also is very easy to "paddlize" (izzat a word?). Sending with it is very very smooth. http://www.4sqrp.com/ek2.php There are indeed many good keyers out there, and ours is one of the best imo. I also have a CMOS II that sits on the shelf. ---------------------------------- Back to the bench, Winter's too valuable to waste. I love this radio stuff ! 72 WA0ITP www.wa0itp.com www.4sqrp.com
