- Welcome to the nineteenth episode in my mini series, showcasing my Begali Key Collection, and now, Begali keys not in my collection!
Take a little look at the Begali Contour.
Filmed at the QTH of G0PNM and I am using the club callsign, G4FOC.
Massive thanks to Piero and Bruna Begali for their friendship and for loaning me the key featured in this video.
My own website is a place where you can find my range of acrylic morse key covers. You can find it at www.g0pnm.uk
Begali's keys can be found at www.i2rtf.com.

Begali make lovely keys and that Contour is no exception. As for your keying style, if you're sending good morse, and you do, then you're doing it right no matter what anybody says, it's the same with straight keys, some say you should operate the key like this, others say you should operate it like that but it's all nonsense, you use the key the way you're most comfortable using it. I like the videos so thanks very much.
Thanks for all of your videos. I really appreciate getting to see each key in action. No matter how you use them, they are marvelous.
Thanks Steve. I really appreciate the comment. 73. Filming another tomorrow so check back soon!
Great video, Pete!
Don’t bother with those comments! I bet you that non of those “commentators” have a HSC certificate hanging on the wall 😊
I have a used one sn 096. Love it.
Hi Pete. I like your videos very much as a professionel telegrapher with the Royal Netherlands Marines back in the 70's. Eech Sparks has his own style so dont bother with those bloody comments. There is no good or bad way to operate a key. Only good or bad signaling. Tnx again for the nice videos. Btw I have 3 Begalis.
Thanks Tom. 73’
If you could only have one Begali for your base station, which one would you choose sir?
I like longer paddles also
New to this still: at what character/word send rate are you working in this video ? I assess you as a most worthy partner to Begali.
Hi. Thanks for the question. I would say I was set at about 22/23wpm.
"you can order a professional black base for and additional 20...." Come on! what on earth is professional about a black base??? No professional would ever use one of those keys anyway.
Lmao! The professional is the model designation they use for a black finished base so you can option that on this or a lot of their other keys if you want. I dare say that there are no cw professionals anywhere these days but I bet I’d there were you’d find them using Begali keys. They’re masterpieces.
@@FOADMedia I don't want to appear negative about your video content but the majority of civilian coastal operators I've seen used a UK manufactured dd GPO key, the model escapes me and almost all the UK military used keys by various UK based manufactures. The exception was some Royal Signals operators who staffed some UK embassies abroad did get issued with Begalis - I've used one but cannot remember which model. It was a very glossy model too.😀
@@098317 it's not my video, I was just replying to your comment about the professional black base. Cheers!
