Hi Danny;
I guess I'm way behind the times but I have been using kenwood radios and 
haven't needed to go key pad shopping.

Hi Richard, only capable of up to ten watts.  Qsyer, ______Isn't the Stone
Mountain one, they've been out of business for a good many years.  There are
actually a couple of different keypads out these days, The John Hansen,
w2FS, Millenium Qsyer works with a number of icom and yaesu radios.  It
gives direct entry of frequency and mode, manages and can program memories,
_only in the Icom Radios, will key the voice read out if Appropriate Icom or
After market chip is installed in the rig, and the qsyer's made within the
last two or so years, give you the opportunity to get freq and mode read out
on Yaesu Radios In CW.
