Alana Fekety
Waleri Pawlow is the best-known morse-key designer and manufacturer from Russia. He builds them on the basis of his experience as a professional radio operator for many years. The keys contain new technical solutions like stabilizing lever of single lever key with magnets and original contact block located between the levers. He uses the method of electro-erosive cutting of the block with the bearings. The keys are mounted on bases of mineral stones, mostly Jasper. They are a combination of an excellent CW tool and a souvenir at the same time. He mainly works with stainless steel which is polished by hand. If you are intereted him via e-mail: ra1...@mail.ru

Gerhard Schurr DH2SAA (1931-2011) built these keys from 1984 in his own little factory in Waiblingen (Baden-Wrtemberg). Because of his pleasure in creating morse-keys he didnt get time enough to practice Telegraphy himself. The keys are a masterpiece of mecanics and are still very much appreciated by German Telegraphists.
Die von Gerhard Schurr DH2SAA (1931-2011) gebauten Morsetasten waren ab 1984 in Deutschland erhltlich. Der gelernte Mechaniker hatte soviel Erfolg und Freude am Bauen von den sogenannten "Schurr-Wabblern", dass er keine Zeit zum verbessern seiner Telegrafiekenntnisse hatte. Die Morsetasten sind Meisterwerke und wegen ihrer besonderen Standfestigkeit sehr beliebt bei Telegrafisten im deutschsprachigen Raum.
