  • Sound isn't working, otherwise good

    The sound doesn't always match up with the keypresses, but otherwise it's pretty good!

  • Love it!

    As a ham radio operator who knows morse code, I had never thought about using this kind of keyboard. After setting it up, it is like using a straight key as timing of dits and dahs is critical. Sending messages this way is lots of fun and great practice! Very cool!
