I was trying to get to the point that I didn't have any "extra" stuff
on my  operating table.
I finally decided to use the Curtis type B and get "used" to it.
Actually, it doesn't take an awfully long time.  A few hours to start
with, and a QSO or so a day keeps one in practice.  I don't like it,
but I didn't want to use the outboard keyer I built from the Curtis
chip back about 1983.
