Invented by Horace Greeley Martin in 1905, the Vibroplex semiautomatic key was developed as a faster, more ergonomic, and more consistent alternative to the classic or “straight” telegraph key. Though more challenging to master, the beloved “bug” is still manufactured by the Vibroplex company to this day and is used by thousands of radiotelegraphers around the world.
