“CW Morse (cwmorse.us) makes a variety of inexpensive, 3D-printed Morse code keys. They’ve now added paddles for iambic keyers to their line. This review looks at one of their newest paddles, and reviews a bit about Morse code timing, standard (up and down) keys, sideswipers (cooties), Vibroplex bugs, and then Curtis-style iambic keying. This is a great key and can be obtained from cwmorse.us. “
