I finally figured out what was happening. The procedure in the manual is wrong!

On step 5, the power is set by the FRONT PANEL POWER CONTROL

On step 7, TAP tune, do NOT hold it. If you hold it, you get the tune power which
is a separate menu item.

To key the tx in CW I had to insert a shorted plug in the key jack on the rear 
panel.

The WMTR LP menu item is evidently controlled by the circuitry that switches the
100 watt PA in and out. If the power control is set above a certain level, the menu
item switches to WMTR HP.
