Introduction -
The popularity of the Elecraft KX-1
®
QRP transceiver has led to the
design of keyer paddles designed specifically to fit this potent little rig. The
Parkwood KXer-Single is a non-iambic plug-in paddle that fits onto the KX-1
without any modification to the rig. It gives the portable operator a tiny paddle
with the feel of a full-sized one. For operation separate from the KX-1, or for
use with other rigs, there is an optional compact brass base. An iambic
version, the KXer, is also available.
