I forget how long ago the article was in QST. Someone wrote an article on a "sip and blow" key. I forget how the circuit worked, but depending on whether you were sipping or blowing through a little hose, you would either send dits or dahs.

I think Mike answered his own question. Mike said he keyed his own microphone with his foot. Using his foot for an adapted straight key or indeed his feet for a paddle is a realistic possibility. Foot artist’s have shown their fantastic abilities despite the obvious disabilities. My two cents worth. Dit dit.

It will depend on how much movement is possible. If the hand can be placed on the desk and moved form side to side a little without pain then a single lever paddle should do the trick.
The lever can be lengthened to make it easier as well. The paddle does not need to be gripped, just placed between two fingers, and then the hand moved side to side slightly. It will not get up to 30wpm, but IMHO that's a good thing! 12+ wpm should be easy enough.

Maybe Mike could use a single lever paddle and adopt a wrist rolling or even arm rolling motion to actuate the paddle, it is easy to do and he can rest his arm on the table. I just tried it and good readable code can easily be sent even at good speed using this technique. There is absolutely no need to bend any finger or thumb joint. Hope that helps

He needs to make the smallest movements possible for sustainable activity. Touch paddles, or well adjusted paddles would be my recommendation. My wife has RA

I am just learning Morse but have developed tremors that could make sending with a straight key or a bug "interesting." I think I might be able to use an "Iambic" paddle as I could use just my thumb and index finger and use minimal movement of my hand. I thought of using a keyboard too but for Mike that might have challenges as well. Another option might be one of the voice to text computer programs if it could be used with some thing like FLDigi or DM780.

Try a search of "Slip On Typing/Keyboard Aid" this gizmo might work on a straight key, or with another "appendage", to a paddle.

Keyboard sending?

Maybe a sensor key/paddle?

With foot keying in mind maybe there is some way to adapt drummers foot pedals. Heck, for that matter, if his wrist is okay maybe something could be done with a drum stick motion? a bug or a set of paddles on its side at a 90 degree angle to the forearm. He would just have to twist his hand up and down like operating a doorknob. Heck, for that matter what about something doing speech to text conversion into an automatic keyer?

Foot switch is a great idea but keying will kill his legs. I would think on rocker foot switch with neutral position. That will legs to rest and keying will be by tilting between left and right foot. I do not recall any commercial devices like this in but for sure it will use some leaf switches. Instead of straight key solution could be a pressure sensor i.e. a dowel coming out of tube and pressing a switch. simply blow to press. Advanced version would recognise 2 positions blow for sit and suction for dat.

I think he should try out a cootie and see if he likes it.

Something else comes to my mind. I do not know the nature of the illness, and by comparison, I tried to imagine effects of extreme cold. When I have hypothermia my hands shake without control, but my fingers are numb and stay in constant relation to a palm. Maybe it could be some paddle key or straight key that can be operated single-handed and i.e. strapped to a palm with some rubberband for stability and ease of use (I suspect that disability influences at some degree the grip).

Where the hell did your hair go Rich??? Oversized paddles maybe?
