I have that problem occaisionally with a bencher single paddle key
and increasing the spacing between the points and adding a little more
spring tension solves the problem.

I like the contact spacing paper thin, but when it is too thin -- may cause
a double bounce.

Yes Bencher does make a single paddle key -- looks like the Iambic with two
paddles -- but functions as a single paddle key.

Hey all,

I'm having an situation with my Keyer/Key setup.

Every once in a while, I'll get a double when I shouldn't. It's


usually

on the dit side.

The key is a home-brew Iambic. The radio is an IC-745. THe contacts


have

been cleaned, to no avail.

Anyone have a similar situation or know if this may have been an


issue

with the 745? I'm going to try a few experiments, but any help is
appreciated.
