it can even be used to speak as I did in this activation after a paddle key cable failure:

Dear all, I had the pleasure of activating a new unique this afternoon-evenning. I want to apologize because I had announce in my previous alert a cw activation on HF, but my Palm Radio paddle decided itself that it would not produce any dot today. With dashes only it wasn’t going to be possible After looking into the paddle and trying to produce dots by shortcircuiting with my pen ball first, which it worked, and a small screwdriver that I found in my sota-kit later, which didn’t work…

I’m glad it happens to the more experienced too.
