Shipment: Ordered on Oct.9th, shipped on Oct.12th with China Post and delivered to me on Nov.2nd. Build: There was a visible scratch on the bottom of the external chasis, There was also a scratch on the front LED. Neither of these is a substantial problem, but it tells you the quality of the manufacturing process. Functionality: The product comes with no manual or whatsoever. By opening the chasis (you will have to do it to install your batteries), you will notice the product is a clone of an existing design, so you can find the complete, comprehensive manual for the keyer. With the proper manual, I can now use the keyer not only as a basic two-bank memory keyer, plus the partitioning capability. I have not yet tested its contest macro. Overall: So far the product seems to work just as well as it should. For the money I paid, I'd say I would expect more. I will not call this splendid or perfect, but just okay, fine, and good.
