  Most of the CW operators in my club use double lever keys and keyers, 

but FEW use them iambicaly, some have to hold down the key with their 

other hand or they slap it around a bit, it took me years to figure out
why they were working so hard during field day.
   They all, to a man (and woman) refuse to think there is a better way.
They even refuse to watch a demonstration of how easy and calm sending can be.

   Every operator that I have ever known that keys iambicaly has told me:
   "I would hate to have to go back to a single lever paddle".
