Bug sending.  Fingers or Rolling Forearm?

DA sends with her flying fingers! I learned to send by rolling my forearm.

RCA KPH operator Denice Stoops (DA) uses a wonderful fingerwork flourish
but it isn't the way I was taught to avoid cramping and other bug-a-boos of
bug sending.

Here is a video of myself at a Speed-X semi-automatic key - I discuss
sending and set up of bug:

Here is a closeup of bug setup looking at the damper adjustment - "just so
it touches the wheel on the damper - and the damper wheel is unrestrained
so that it moves!".

I always asked the best operators I ever heard for advice and I was told I
could send faster, longer, and clearer by rotating the forearm to send.  I
have found this to be true.

More on KPH including a half hour video and more DA sending!

Even though I recommend my method of bug sending, I could watch DA sending
forever!  I'm boring next to her!
