[TenTec] OT: Bug maintenance

[Able2fly@aol.com]

T-T group,
 
I'm assuming there are a few Vibroplex bug users  around here.   Wondering if 
the pivot points of  an old "Original" (non jeweled) should be lubed, or 
would that just attract  dirt or otherwise lead to problems? I see no sign of 
lubrication on this  one.
 
I just picked up a 60 yo Original Standard and find it fun to  use after 
quite a bit of practice. A problem now is that my iambic  timing seems to have 
gone to hell. Wonder if I'll be able to recover  ??

                    PS  Is there a list/reflector more suited a discussion 
such as  this?
