[Elecraft] Keyer paddle setup

I took a slightly different approach. I am nominally left-handed but since I
operated at a variety of commercial and military sites as well as my
personal Amateur station, I chose to learn to use a right handed bug (yes,
there were expensive 'left handed' bugs available). 

Sending with my right hand freed my left hand to write while I'm sending.
That is, if I can write and send CW at the same time. Personally I'm still
working on walking while chewing gum...

I normally use my right hand to send and, indeed, learned to use my thumb 
for dits. Electronically reversing the function and putting the paddle on my

left, I can use my left hand without much training. My brain simply seems to

cope with that...
