I wonder if anyone has the history as to why, and I'm sure that it goes way back into the old bug days. I have never seen an Iambic key jack standard. I have an Icom IC-738 and Idiom Press Logikey K3, and they are opposite of each other. I have started, look at http://www.la.ca.us/frandy/ in the paragraph which starts, "Two years later, on May 7, 1904, Martin filed a patent..." where pushing the lever to the right made a strings of dots. But I wonder if any research was done to pick the direction. John John Farnsworth wrote: > > OK so tip is usually dit and ring is dah. Got it.
