Hi John,
I think your missing info on the K3 "CW-to-Data" mode function.

You can use data modes completely stand-alone (i.e., without a computer). 
Just turn on text decode, and send CW using the internal keyer.  The CW will 
be transmitted as PSK-31 or RTTY depending on which mode you selected.
(See page 34 of K3 Owners Manual Rev D4)

73,
Frank - W6NEK
