Here is the callback function:

def callback(event):
     field0 = varText1.get()
     initAmount.delete(0, END)
     initAmount.insert(0, field0)
     return

It quite clearly does an insert. If you don't want the insert remove it?
I still don't think I understand what your problem is? You read the 
field and insert it, presumably you did that for a reason, so why are 
you surprised when it works as you designed it to work?
