Choosing the "right" CW key for you can be a somewhat daunting task, especially for the new CW operator (I put "right" in quotes, since there's no such thing. It all depends). In this video I go over various types and styles of keys, and talk about pros and cons, as well as my personal preferences and reasons for choosing keys. Please keep in mind, these are just my opinions and preferences. I'm sure some "expert" will come along and tell me I'm wrong......but I don't care. Like I said, these are just my preferences and reasons for choosing what I choose. You may have different needs, opinions, and budgets. I just want to give people an idea about what they should consider when buying a key. Buy the best key you can afford, and one that fits your needs. That being said, a good CW op can send good code with two bare wires touched together (yes, I've seen it done) while a bad CW op will send garbage code on a Begali (I've been guilty of that one myself before LOL). The key doesn't make the operator, but a good key is a joy to use, and will certainly make you WANT to send better code. Oh, and thanks to Rick Henderson who gave me the inspiration to make this video!
Thanks for watching and 73
