Eric,

i'm probably not the guy to ask about this since I hate iambic paddles and 
my bencher has been in a drawer since I got a keyboard keyer.  Having said 
that, read the reviews on eham under product reviews if you haven't done so 
already. That should give you lots of input.  If I can ever aford it, I'd 
like to get a begali single-lever paddle.  I've also heard good things about 
the N3ZN paddles but now we're getting into premium paddles with premium 
prices.  Good luck.  Lou  WA3MIX
