Eric,
Perhaps your friend has one of the Vibroplex combinations. I've seen
them and they are reallly nice. A friend has a combo - the bug and
the straight key. Like you I could never become at home with a
bug. Someone home brewed me an electronic keyer billions of years
ago and I had a modified bug as a paddle and it worked until I got my
first "real" paddle. Perhaps that was a Vibroplex but I don't
remember. Lent it to someone and never got it back!!
As I mentioned I used a Bencher for many years and it works just
fine. And any of them turn me in to a pretty decent C W operator.
Let me know how it turns out.
