[CW] Regarding the slowing down of bugs......

[Danny Douglas via CW]

Gee, guys, a bunch of good info all around.  Wish I had it, 40 years 
ago.  It was always a bother to switch back and forth from a bug to a 
straight key, especially when working control desk watch  and having 
dozens of people calling back and forth at different speeds.  I got 
fairly good at just using the Mark side of the key for that, but these 
solutions certainly make it sound better.
Just look what computers are doing for cw today.  HI
