This key gets my thumbs up. Smoother and quieter than some other bug keys and represents excellent value for money.

Hi Sandy, I've been following your productions. Good work, I 've enjoyed them all. This one, the Olympic, was so well done that I now have my name on the waiting list. Just hope I can become as proficient as you. Since watching some of the sideswiping videos, I've been using a home made one that I'm finally brave enough to put it on the air.

@W7WEL Hi Bill,

Thanks for your comment and subscription. Tom has built a delightful bug with his Olympic. It needs only a light touch to get it going but being a Twin lever means your timing has to be very good. This will come with practice.  For years I have used a Vibroplex which is a single lever so there was a learning curve for me too. Took me a day to adjust to the new key.

The contacts are gold plated so the dots are clean and scratch free even on modern rigs.

Have fun
