I know I'm a bit late to this, but I'm using gnome-terminal as well, and 
I'm certain the echo comes from the telnet client, not the terminal. The 
solution I found was to install socat and use this command to connect:

  socat -,raw,echo=0 tcp:127.0.0.1:20000

I think netcat will probably work for this too, but I couldn't figure out 
how to make that happen.
