[FISTS] Lake Erie Swing

[Fred Adsit]

You will find the answer to the Lake Erie Swing in the following fascinating
article on Neil McEwen's website:

http://www.metronet.com/~nmcewen/swing.html

A couple of good reasons are given for its existence, although if you really
want to hear it, then listen to an operator operate a sideswiper. This is
one of the reasons given in the article. :-)

The distinctiveness of sending with bugs and sideswipers has been discussed,
and it is, for those who appreciate putting some expression into otherwise
machine-like sending, a very enjoyable experience for any CW operator who
masters other than electronic keyers and keyboarding.
