GHD Keys GM702 Palm-Size Travel Iambic Paddle

GHD Keys GM702 Palm-Size Travel Iambic Paddle is a very compact model that features retractable finger pieces to keep them from being damaged or broken in transit. All metal construction, instead of plastic, makes this an ideal "travel kit" item. Retracted paddle aluminum case size is 3 x 1.5 in. that weighs 5 oz.

The GM701 is a twin paddle, double-lever type of pocket paddle for true Iambic squeeze keying. Contact spacing and spring tension can be adjusted by unscrewing the top retraction knob and removing the paddle from inside the case. Supplied with an attached cable with 1/8 in. (3.5mm) stereo male plug. The user may add a 1/8 in. (3.5mm) to 1/4 in. (6.35mm) stereo adapter if needed, depending upon transceiver or keyer connection.

This is an updated version of the earlier GM701, which is now discontinued. The GM702 has better tactile feel and a 3.5mm transceiver cable already attached for use.
