   The beauty in `keying' with the "wrong hand" is it leaves you writing
hand free to copy CW and/or take notes.
   I think left handers that can learn to key with their right hand make
it easier on themselves when it comes to fieldays, club stations, mobile etc.

   As soon as I become gud with my (normal) right hand, I hope to learn to
key with my left.  (if I live that long)
