Added characters while using the keyer function #ubitx

I have a V3 ubitx given to me and I have added a jack for an imabic keyer.? Seems to work but I am finding that it will sometimes send dah dit dit dit dah when I send the letter C.? Just a bit disconcerting. The contacts on the key have been cleaned but I? am still getting an occassional missed character when I send.? I am running KD8CEC firmware on the nano with Iambic B setting in Ian's program.? This of course does not happen when using a straight key but then there are other issues there as well.??

Thanks in advance

Hi,
???????? I placed a 5k1 resistor in each cw wiring line to the cw socket and do not get any extra charactors and get what i send,,,.It works for me and has done for 12 months.I use a bencher paddle key and 20 wpm and use my bitx most days on various bands plus i have 2 other ubitx transceivers which run KD8 CEC firmware,I am impressed with all 3..Regards? Dave G0AYD..
