I2RTF Piero Begali Keys

Officina Meccanica Begali was founded in 1954 and has been manufacturing electromechanical precision components since 1960.

Their line of fine keys and paddles for the ham community are a more recent addition.

They are a result of Piero’s desire to create the finest keys and paddles for his own use.

Piero obtained his ham radio license as I2RTF in 1964.

Ever since he has been a dedicated CW operator, and it was only natural that one day he would try to design and produce the best Morse keys that money can buy .

Now Piero has once again push his limits, designing and producing a very special limited edition paddles key expecially to commemorate the 17th edition of the International EME Conference.

It is called “Moon”, and it is a state of the art magnetic key, entirely built of high grade stainless steel, with solid silver contacts, and carbon fiber finger paddles. It has a custom made laser engraving with a year 1685 moon map on it.

Price for this Limited Ed. work of art will be 520 Euro.
