I couldn't believe the racket! Wow was it loud. I like the feel, but never noticed the sound problem until I tried to use one in a voice ham radio contest. Every time I typed a key, it would trip off the VOX (voice-operated relay) and I'd miss part of what I was trying to copy down. Fortunately, I found a quieter keyboard to use for the European runs the next morning. - Jim AD1C =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "The opinions expressed here in no way represent the views of Digital Equipment Corporation."
