This is NOT 50wpm. The keyer may be set at 50wpm but his word gaps are way to wide making it more like 40wpm. So far I have not found anyone who can actually send a real 50wpm. Compare this to a keyboard and you will hear the difference.
Tnx for the review Carlo. Is this paddle the one you prefer to use? I’m using a UR5CDX Iambic and like it but am intrigued with the solid state 9A5N. Is there anything you do not like about the 9A5N paddle? Tnx 73, Ken, N5EE
I've posted somewhat more detailed adjustment procedures for the Begali Intrepid bug and Sculpture Swing side swiper here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lMvT8btuBsc.html
Great vide Carlo. Is the side swiper better than a semi automatic bug? What about an iambic paddle? I can see it would be MUCH easier on a persons wrist vs on a straight key!
Interesting that she’s using iambic keying (vs single-action) which, as I understand, becomes more difficult to do without errors at very high code speeds. Ironically, the Leonessa is the only Begali key that can be easily converted to single-action keying. But I guess there would be a learning curve to key properly without iambic action if that’s what you’re used to.
@@marcinmerrimack1726 I liked the overall design better of the Leonessa and it was cheaper:) Although I do think the actual paddles of the Janus are nicer. I use it in iambic.
I’m learning to really prefer the cootie. I love how I can precisely match the other guy’s speed, too. The RBN has no problem finding me, which is another good test.
Hi Carlo, not related to this video but you showed a ghd dual lever bug in one of your other videos and was wondering if that bug is still available? Sorry to comment here but the other video did not have a way to comment.
Very impressive! I am happy at a quarter of that speed... (To be fair the text I copied would be more like: "DE IK0YGJ SALLO EUERYDODNM TSE BEGALI HST KEY II TSE FASTEIT IN TSE PLANET MS3 DE IK0YGJ TU SU" ;o)
Thanks for the upload. I just acquired and build a "Mini B" from American Morse Equipment, and am going to start learning how to use one. I have heard that they are less fatiguing on the wrist than a straight key. I use paddles mostly, so it will be a bit of an adjustment, but I think I can manage that.
