    The package was delivered very quickly, within 3 calendar days of the order date and on a national holiday weekend no less! The power supply was quadruple-wrapped in bubble-wrap and nested in a double-thickness cardboard box. It arrived in the same excellent to like-new condition it was sent. The DM-330MV is unusual in its price class in that it conservatively supports 30A with 32A peak. Most similar quality units support 20A or less. I would positively buy from this seller again.

    The graphic novel was packaged well in bend-resistant packaging. However, the novel came with a small crease on the top of a good amount of the pages. These pages also had a tiny tear where the creases occurred. I believe that this damage came from something that was jabbed through the top, as I saw a gash in all of the layers of the packaging that lined up with the creased section. I believe that it is likely that this damage was caused during shipping as it did get lost for a period of time.

    Well designed and very rugged.

    This is a very rugged unit. I do like the rubber skid pads that help to grip on flat surfaces. The unit assembles easily. It is great for ''gadget'' type hobbyists, yet I did MC in the military, and this is the genuine article.

  • Top critical review

    fine key, ugly oscillator

    I'm pleased with the key, but not with the sound of the oscillator. Each beep descends rapidly in pitch, with the result that even perfectly keyed morse code sounds a little drunk. The tone is also raspy and harsh (triangle wave). I checked some YouTube videos, and it seems these traits are typical of this model, although not all descend in pitch as much as mine does. My oscillator is so repulsive to my ear that I ended up buying a serial to usb conversion cable so I could use software on my computer to generate the sound. If I had known the oscillator was going to be like this then I probably would have purchased a higher quality key without an oscillator.

  • Nice little self contained morse key.

    Morse key with adjustable gap and tension. Volume and tone button. Takes a 9v battery. Reasonable sturdiness and weight. Decent quality for price and an all in unit for anyone who just wants to either learn morse or practice morse.

  • GREAT Product!!!!!

    This device has really helped me to send Morse Code much better. After listening to my coding, I have recognized several issues that I need to address to send more consistent cod. Thank you for a wondedrful product. -Dave H,

  • Works great

    Works great, heavy enough to not move around, rubber pads prevent scratching surfaces. I see no need for a separate power supply, the battery is lasting a long time.
