This thoughtful review details ajourney from the stock Elecraft KXPD2 paddle to an innovative pressure-sensor alternative. The author candidly describes issues with their original paddle—intermittent operation and loosening screws—before discovering VK3IL's pressure-sensitive design through QST magazine. The construction process, using a PCB and components generously shared by the designer, proved straightforward despite challenging SMD soldering. What stands out is the clever DIY housing solution: a "sandwich" of closed-cell foam encased in heat-shrink tubing that fits comfortably in hand. The ergonomic design allows effective single-handed operation for portable SOTA activations. The successful implementation has rendered the original paddle obsolete, leaving only the task of covering the radio's paddle port. -

The Pressure Paddle V2.0 simplifies the original 2019 design by using MOSFETs’ unique properties for reliable, minimalistic switching. When pressure sensors detect a press, they reduce resistance, activating the MOSFET and lowering voltage until it stabilizes at the MOSFET’s threshold. This ensures consistent “key down” signals for the transceiver. Compatible with 3-5V logic systems, the circuit operates independently of pull-up resistor size. The PCB is lightweight, easy to assemble, and can be packaged in heat shrink or mounted. This version maintains durability with fewer components and flexible packaging options. -
