J.M. MARCH Iambic Paddle

Thanks to Ken for this new J.M. MARCH Iambic Paddle. Here it's used with my IC-703 10W and a wire antenna in a DX contact with Lars, SM5CAK in Sweden on 15 meters. Lars' station is 500W with a 2-element Yagi beam antenna.

Nice.... Unfortunately, I failed my morse code test back in the day when my brother and I were interested in shortwave commutations, after which I lost interest. The problem I had was I was a terrible speller (still am to a degree), as you know part of reading code is comprehension or interpretation of words as there are being coded, at least that's what my brother told me he did when taking the test, he pasted and had many years of enjoyment in the field.... I simply lost interest because of my failure.... I know it shows a weakness of caricature but in my defeness, it was my brothers desire more than mine.
