Fists - 

The way you send says a lot about you...I use a paddle and find this  to be the best way to send.
I dont understand the love for a bug. I try to send  as close as possible like a W1AW bcst.
Using a bug cant come close  to great sending......I have met very few good bug ops.
Many times the swing and spacing makes for a poor qso. Why use a bug? A paddle is
a better key and if you have good timing the effort is  less work than using a bug.
As for a handkey...thats a lot of work and its difficult sending faster than 30 wpm.
To each his own I suppose....

Like the Cylons said many yahren ago...machined perfection is our goal...
Long live CW.............
