I;m so pleased to read that while Morse is gone - more or less - it is not forgotten. I learned sending Morse from a Canadian key, and was surprised when I went to sea to find the Marconi key, built like a tank complete with a big knob, and as I recall, ball-bearings. It stuck out on the edge of the desk and there was no place to put your elbow. I soon fixed that by removing the Marconi from the desk, installing a flexible cord, and removing that big knob; Those were the days....
