Never having a bug, or a paddle, or any sort of keyer,
only a straight key (about 500 contacts with it), can
someone explain what does what?

I thought a bug did dits one way and dahs the other, and
would do so as long as it was held, using a bouncing weight
against a spring.

I thought an electronic keyer was the same, without the weights.

I cant guess what you would 'squeeze', or what iambic is, or 
what a and b are.....

Maybe someday I will try these new gizmo's.
