Junker Morse Code Key

The key was invented by Joseph Junker, a German Naval Radio Officer in World War I, and patented in 1920. Several modifications were made to the key over the years, (it was made until 1993), but the original design has stood the test of time. A Junker's key is noted for its smooth operation and the fact that you can adjust the lever tension.
My good friend Mike Dainty a former radio officer with Cunard an other shipping lines having had to move to a nursing home kindly donated it to me Though I have No licence for HF my interest in 2m radio an licence G6ETG exists
