Automatic CQ repeat was not engaged. Operating Technique was SO1R.
By mistake / accident the Shift key was enabled, pressing F1 lead to a
randomly cq loop.
We couldn't stop it, only by closing WT. So we were a little surprised
...
But as this happened only when 'Shift' was pressed, it is least
importend.

Ok, good to know. I was sometimes surprised and could not stop sending.
Would be nice to stop CW sending in Keyboard mode by pressing 'Escape',
but I don't want to be impolite with so many requests ...

Operating technique was SO1R. F-Keys - I will check again, the reason
might the buffer of the keyboard mode. (It happened in conjunction with
the keyboard mode.)
