This short video presents the VK3IL Pressure Paddle - a lightweight portable paddle for your amateur radio's iambic keyer (for CW / Morse Code). This paddle is perfect for the portable POTA and SOTA operator, as it is small and uses no moving parts. The author's blog page for this project can be found here:
