Bob, thanks for posting the training film. I
saw the film
in 1962 as a Navy RM who looked surprising just
like
the guys in the film. :>)

There is also an Army training film covering the same subject on YouTube somewhere. As I understand it, or perhaps misunderstand it, "straight key" covers purely mechanical keying devices such as bugs and sideswipers as well as "conventional hand keys." I think SKCC considers all of these devices to be straight keys. I like what I call "conventional hand keys" best for real "handmade" CW. Just thought I would throw my $.02 worth in. 73, Lou, N8LA From: Bob Baxter To: 4sqrp@... Sent: Monday, March 25, 2013 6:50 PM Subject: [4sqrp] Straight Key
