If you slap it, it should [work like a bug]. If you squeeze, all bets are
off. Element insertion, and all that.

VERY interesting idea, tho. Someone should try this and report back. (I
can't - I have no idea how a bug should act). I've squeezed since before my
first license (N4GMN, a Technician if I recall, I lost the log and it's been
a couple of years).

make the K2 keyer work like a bug.

It seems you should be able to do this using the auto hand key mode and a
diode from the dah line to the dit line. With this wiring keying a dah would
work like a hand key and you could hold the key as
long as you want but when you key a dit the diode would disconnect the dah
contact and the dit contact would work normally.
