The bigger brother, TP-II, is also a very nice key! Modern, pleasant and reliable.

I don't need or want one but I admire the engineering. Thanks for sharing.

What a beautifully designed & constructed iambic paddle & the quality is obvious for all to see. Good excuse to finally start learning Morse as I always dreaded using a straight key, but this looks so cool & would suit the 705 to a tee. Thanks Alan for demonstrating, & uploading it, well timed & sending regards to Markus for a nice product!

My TP-III has arrived two weeks a go...and I made my frist SOTA and my first WWFF activation....they are just superb. The key is very easy...and on SOTA is easy to use the key with one hand.

It was worth the wait to get. Great rugged key.

Great review--thanks for posting. Nice design.

I use the American Morse paddle. For portable operations I mounted it to a small clipboard. This lets me hold the clipboard with paddles against my knee with the left hand and operate the paddle or write down call signs and information with my write hand. This arrangement eliminates putting paddles down while I copy the QSO. Picture of this on my QRZ page. Charlie KM4ZZ

Nice review. Same as the key, short/simple and efficient. 73 !

Nice design great review tks for posting..

very cute.

I bought one of these.. It is worth every penny. I might buy two just to have an extra.

Excellent, thanks very much for this tutorial.

Thank you for sharing.

That's snazzy! Cheers!

@w2aew would have been nice to see a paddle reverse switch like on the cheaper one you mention, the slight play in the vertical axis isn't an issue in operation for me and for $65 its a bargin.

Beautiful idea with the opposing magnets to set the force. (Unless it's common, which just demonstrates I know nothing about mechanical engineering. 8) ) Beautiful paddles in general!

I had that idea in mind for a long time but of course I'm not alone and I'm lazy :D I'm happy somebody did it to a real product. Congratulation to German colleagues! Nice job !!!!

I'd think I'd be better at driving your Porsche (if I could ever fit in it) then using your paddle....LOL I do like how well built that first paddle is. Would be neat to bring and use with your portable set-up.

Thank you! 73!

I've been looking at their portable straight key, but there's been no video reviews of one in action. If the paddle is of good quality, I'm sure the straight key would be as well. Thanks for the peek. 😀

Nice

This is a request for a video topic: I note that there are many videos on end fed so called random wire antennas. I have watched many and I am UN-impressed with the content. I am a inactive Ham and an electronics engineer. (Not much RF experience) But it seems to me that there are conflicting explanations on the sub topics such as: 1) UNUNs 2) Counterpoise 3) RF Chokes on the coax 4) Wire length and type 5) Grounding or not - If I were confident in my understanding, I would make a video and structure it by designing a circuit equivalent of the antenna 'system' including each of the above. - I have watched many of your videos and not only find no fault, but I highly respect your clear approach toward teaching. Please consider a video on this topic. I believe it would be a significant contribution to the Ham community. You are the real Elmer, amongst many not so. Thanks for your considering this request.

Very nice key and I wonder how it compares to the Begali Adventurer.

I just ordered this beautiful key. This excellent review serves as a great quickstart manual. I like the elastomeric tape idea. Any specific type or brand you recommend? 73.

Hi I've been watching your videos and i really like your content. I came across this thing called bootstrapping in a common emitter amplifier and I.dont really understand it. Can you make a video about it?

Thanks forthe the review. I just ordered TP-II. Is it Porsche as well?

How is the speed adjusted and the tone generated?

I am only receiving audio, no video.

Can we get a car tour video?

I suppose you drive a Porsche. You know a lot of people can't even afford a car. I myself have a Camry, it's pretty good. "Yo check out my Porsche everyone" :D Or do you just own the key to show off a little bit ;) If I ever have so much money to buy a Porsche I like to think that I'd still get the Camry and maybe take some of those savings and donate to poor people but who knows what I would actually do. Think about this one, if you paid $10,000 less for your vehicle you could give $100 tips to 100 people. Is it a black 2011 boxter (from reddit)? I guess that's not too bad, looks like they sell for $30k. For reference I paid $12k for the Camry with only 40k miles and it's also a 2011. My thinking is this, if I made twice as much money as a "normal" person but I spent the same amount as a "normal" person, then I only have to work half as long and get to retire early. But if I also spend twice as much then I still have to work until I'm old just like everybody else. That's my theory anyway, so I'm trying to keep my expenses on the low end lol. I'm sure you don't care about any of that but hey, if you post a video you might get stupid comments like this :D

Your expertise is appreciated. Thanks. wd9gus

I'm still learning code so it took me a few tries . "Tu Markus fer a fb key de W2AEW K" ...I think this is correct.

Tu Markus fer afbkey deW2aew K. Not sure what afbkey abbreviation is, looks like nice key, Barry AG6VC, VK2FP

I owned one and works increíble! I used it for Sota. Suscribed. Jon EA3BV
