>I used a bug for many years before trying an electronic keyer. I
never have tried to master iambic but typically use the paddles
sequentially, which I am sure limits my speed, but 30-35 wpm is fast
enough for me in any case. I suppose a single-lever paddle would be
better for this, but I haven't yet discovered one I really like (my
favorite paddle is a Begali Simplex, with an old Brown Brothers as a
close second).
If you like the Begali Simplex, you should try
Begali's Simplex Mono. I've used Vibroplex, Bencher, Kent
and several others and now have only a Simplex Mono. Best
single-paddle key I've found in 50 years.

At 3 pounds it's not for back-packing but stays firmly
planted on your operating desk!
