Manufactured in Sendai, Japan, GHD keys are finely craf ed instruments, combining form, function, and long-lasting durability to create a satisfying CW operating experience, whether contesting or sharpening your coding skills. The chrome Cootie Sideswiper Key (GF502A) is similar to a straight key turned on its side. The key is at rest in the middle when not in use, and the lever arm is pushed lef or right to make contact. The GHD semi-automatic Bug key features a light touch at the finger pieces and has an integrated yoke similar to the one used on the GN205S Single-Lever Paddle. The yoke and arm assembly is unique with two moving parts for the dit side and one for dah. When sending a dah the lever arm moves to the right and makes contact. When sending a dit the lever presses a second yoke bar with the contact spring. No other Bug key has a lever arrangement quite like this one. GDK-GM702 Palm-Size, 5 oz.

PaddlePads A Morse code operator's best friend, DX Engineering PaddlePads are the perfect way to keep your straight key, Bug, or paddle from traveling when you're working the world. These sof , pliable, and washable 1/16"-thick "grippy-sticky" pads come in two sizes (small, 5.4" x 3.4" and XL, 8.3" x 6.2") to keep everything from tiny, lightweight paddles to larger, heavier devices from sliding around in the heat of a CW contest. Amazingly, the pads feel sticky to the touch but use no adhesives that leave sticky or oily residue. Besides ham radio applications, they're also handy for keeping just about anything on a relatively flat surface from slip sliding away.
