That's the reason I fitted a LH C# key as I don't find the banana key to be of any practical use - it may work in theory, but in practice it's got a lot to be desired.

Depending what system oboe you've got, the curly key above the side G# is:

1 - On thumbplate systems it's a side G-Ab trill key (play G and trill it).
2 - On ring key conservatoire systems it's an Ab-Bb trill key (play Ab and trill it).
3 - On Gillet conservatoire systems it's a G#-A trill key (hold it down and trill LH finger 3).

The opinions I express are my own.
