I wrote a tiny C program that uses KY to send a string, but I also use
'KY @;' to cancel anything in progress.  On occasion, sending is
properly canceled but I get a sidetone.  The transmit led is not on when
this happens, so I assume I'm not transmitting.  I only have to send a
dit to stop the tone.

I'm using firmware 4.12.
I can reproduce this using KComm, which uses the KY method to send CW from the keyboard. My current firmware level is 4.03. Actually I first noticed this months ago, but I haven't used it in a while and hoped it had been fixed.
