.... daylight come and I wan' go home.
Let us simplify. All automatic keyers can be swung as though they were not
iambic.
All you have to do is ignore the fact that it is iambic. If you want to try
'the iambic' way then you are squeezing your letters. You dont have to do
this unless you want to. The remaining cw is auto.
The dot/dash memory of type A keying can throw some people, so use type B to
escape it. Whether you use a single or double lever paddle makes no
difference.
This keying thing is made way to much of, as it's not all that complicated.
Alot of hams go buy the cheapest thing that's made and get used to it.
Others buy after investigating and networking the info. If it is confusing
its because it can be unclear, even having read the manual. The manuals on
keyers are abominable.
A good paddle, a Ten Tec and a wire antenna are sublime. Day O)(O
