[Elecraft] Using "bug" keyer with KX3 paddles

[Vic, K2VCO]

The most important feature of a bug isn't that the operator determines
the length of the dahs. It is the mechanical feedback that the operator
gets which (in the right hands) makes possible the rhythmic sending that 
can be so pleasing. No keyer emulation can possibly provide that.
