I normally use my right hand to send and, indeed, learned to use my thumb
for dits. Electronically reversing the function and putting the paddle on my
left, I can use my left hand without much training. My brain simply seems to
cope with that...

No less than three Ops on Pratas Island, BQ9P, where we used
paper logging, turned my paddle around as you mentioned. At
the time I thought there should be a better way.

A related item ... in the pre-computer logging days of contesting one
could quickly learn left-hand sending by simply turning the paddles
away from the sender and reach over the top of the key. This left the
right hand free for logging.
