Actually, my alternate fingering is your "classic" fingering of 1 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 1, taking the written d (concert G) as open. The clam, for me, was/is going from the B-flat to the C (concert E-flat to F). I realize it may also be something weird with the valves of my old horn. > Keep things going. Good luck.
