Any button will definitely stop it, but (and this includes the K3, K3S, KX3 and possibly the KX2 as well) oft times you will get a partial (dot or dash) sent even when pressing a button. Even when calling CQ looking for a general QSO this can be annoying and confusing to both the sending station and any station listening/planning on answering the CQ. It definitely is not exclusive to "running" in a contest. It bugs me as well and I am not a contester.

The original poster's request is certainly reasonable and I suspect this has bugged a lot of people (myself included) for a long time but most of us didn't want to endure the "use N1MM" and other similar replies having no real bearing on the original request.

I think pressing any button the KX3 will terminate the msg repeat.
