[Elecraft] KX3 sidetone bug when recording memories

[Sven Ladegast]

Hello list,

I just noted another misbehaviour on the KX3 (MCU firmware 1.94 and 2.12):

When disabling VOX in CW mode and recording a text into one of the 
memories 1-6 and using the ending phrase <IM> (..--) at the end of the 
text the CW sidetone stays on until I press another button. I usually 
tap MSG again and the sidetone stops.

Seems like the confirmation tone of the <IM> ending starts but does not 
stop until another sound is played...for example a key press.

I noticed when I set up CW memories testing the fast play mode in the 
contest and programming the memories in the field. I usually use the KX3 
utility for that but in the contest you want your transmission end as 
quick as possible (using <IM>).

This behaviour only happens while recording memories and not while playing.

Regards!
