Talked to Paul Clinton today.......No parts, no service. The keyer works fine. He suggested bringing out the paddle wiring to a new jack on the rear, and use a new paddle set.

Through a stroke of luck, I have acquired a KR-20a Keyer. The electronics seem to be fine. The paddles are a different story. The paddle mount is sloppy in the case . The whole mount moves around a bit. Also the arm on the left is sprung out. Has anyone found cures for either of the problems. or do I just be gentle and use it. Has anyone cured the bent arm issue. Can it be fixed with a heat gun and a clamp to hold the arm square as it cools.

Does Ten-Tec still service those? I've got one that in my ignorance at the time, connected to a Kenwood TS-520 and let all the smoke out of it. :(
