History of the Morse Key

Since the first Morse telegraph systems were introduced, an enormous
variety of Morse keys or telegraph keys and keyers have been
constructed.

>From Straight keys including the Camelback Morse key, to automatic
Morse keyers such as the Vibroplex, their development has seen many
new innovations, and enormous changes in style.

Even today many people enjoy sending Morse Code using these Morse
keys. While some may say that they are simply a switch, this is most
certainly not the case. Morse keys have been the subject of over 300
patents in the USA alone, and they have undergone a considerable
amount of development. The way in which keys have developed since the
very first ones used by Morse himself is a fascinating story. Some
styles of key are quite familiar, whilst others have quite unusual
attributes and as a result many people find collecting keys a
fascinating pastime.
