Hi Dave;
Maybe this is why I never did like "bugs". Most owners of them slide =
the weight a long ways the wrong way!. It is very hard for me to copy =
them. And all the while, they are congratulating them selves how fast =
they can send. I equate this to the music crowd that thinks "Louder is =
better" it doesn't matter if you can under stand it or not to them, or =
even if it is actually painful to you, they are LOUD!
K9PEP, Paul

There are those who claim that if you use a bug and send dits at 40 =
WPM and dahs at 15 WPM that your fist has "character".
There are those who claim that if your signal has chirp,clicks or =
buzz that your signal has "character".
I guess the "louder is better" music also has "character".
