I second Dave's comments about the Ham Radio Center keys. I acquired one of
the dual models, straight key and iambic on the same base, and the straight
key feels quite good. (for sale, make an offer)

My favorite keys in order are the WT8AMP British key, any one of a number
of my Western Union keys (possibly made by Bunnell), and the Schurr "Mobil"
key. Acutally these W.U. keys are real sleepers as hardly anyone ever
mentions them in key surveys. They are superb keys, far better IMO than the
Nye knockoffs, and they can be found at swaps for about $25. A great
investment.
