Elecraft: High end paddles

N6JW
I'll add a fourth vote for the Begali paddles, to Joe's three votes :)

 

But note:  the Begali simplex (dual) paddle costs less ($138) than the Hex
key ($195/179), even including shipping costs from EU; and less than the
Begali simplex mono (single lever paddle) at $165.  Of course, you can pay
more for higher end Begali models!  For what its worth, I think the Begali
simplex and Kent paddles are the best value for money on the market for
standard type paddles, and the Hex key is the best value for money one can
find for a magnetic tension paddle.  But I agree personal preference trumps
value for money any day!

John, N6JW
