It was the Accu-Keyer that finally displaced the Lightning Bug,
although I still have the bug and still use it.
It was probably one of the most popular iambic keyers of all time, and
they occasionally show up on eBay in various states of disrepair. I
still have the original I built from the first 1973 QST article. It
has a nice feel, is easy to use, and the auto character space feature
cleans up a lot of slop. The CMOS-4 is virtually identical in Accu-
Keyer emulation mode. It's like old home week :-)
