Richard,

Here's a photo of a bug lip with a wedge in it. Some keys have a small
forward facing rectangular slot on the base of the key. U.S. Navy had that
type. If a radioman had a speed key certificate which authorized him to use
a semiautomatic key, he would plug his wedge into that slot.  Only
operators who had speed key certificates were authorized to use bugs.
