The most important feature of a bug isn't that the operator determines
the length of the dahs. It is the mechanical feedback that the operator
gets which (in the right hands) makes possible the rhythmic sending that can be so pleasing. No keyer emulation can possibly provide that.

I just plug my bug into the key jack on the side and configure the
jack as a hand key in the menu.  I've found that the electronic bug
emulations in keyers sound terrible on the air when I try to use
them.  I can at least generate reasonably decent CW with my real
bugs.
