I rarely use it any more, because I'm lazy. The keyer is easier. Also,
my bug fist isn't what it used to be. But I do want it to sound clean
when I do.

I use a reed relay with a capacitor across the coil with my bug. The
K3 is not the only modern radio that keys poorly with a bug.
A cousin who had used it in the Navy gave me his bug when I was a new
ham, and when you and I were working on the Traffic Hounds Morning
Watch. I quit it cold turkey for an early electronic keyer sometime in
the '60s. I don't debate your advice, Vic.
