<p>Well there are several Bills around this site. When I talk with Jerry K9JB I run 55 to 60 depending on the conditions. Tonight QRN was high as was Jerry's line noise and we QSO for a mew minutes at about 20 wpm. Yesterday AI6U and I were running about 65 but I had trouble copying him so I don't know how fast I can QSO these days. I love my Rosewill board though and the keys are smooth and I don't think I have ever hit a key and not gotten that letter out. It is smooth, smooth, smooth.</p>

<p>I thought you had been running at least 60 and maybe 65 when I hear you in the QRN here. I noticed Chris with you guys the other night, and possibly last night also, but working to copy in QRN is not worth it for me!</p>

<p>Glad you like it. It would be interesting to feel the difference between the Cherry RED key (I think that is what I have) and which ever "color" you have. I recall they were two different key types.</p>

<p>I have been using my Rosewill for two months now and just love it. I use in conjunction with the K1EL K42 CW Keyboard keyer. My typing error rate has definately gone down. I'm not at 50WPM yet, but working on it.</p>

<p>I am using my rk 9000RE and I like it. The feel is good and the keyboard is steady on the desk and solid. The keys feel good to me although I have to have a few hours on the air before I will really be comfortable with it. I have had a few QSO with Jerry but QRN is so high at his QTH that good QRQ is pretty hard to maintain. One QSO with Chuck but he went off to watch the solar eclipse (it was raining here so no eclipse to watch.)</p>

<p>After reading all the positive articles about the Rosewill Keyboard I went ahead and ordered one from NewEgg $99 bucks including S&H and they even through in a webCam which I have no use for. I love the feel of the hefty construction of the board and the light touch of the keys. I believe it's helped my typing speed and accuracy, at 78 my thumb finger is a bit shaky QRQ with a paddle is tough going for me.</p>
