Ok, I just had an AH HA! Moment when I figured out what KY mode is. 
Works as intended and desired.
Thanks guys!!!

I used HRD/DM780 in "KY mode" on a CW traffic net tonight.  Worked
great.......uh, as well as HRD/DM780 works that is.  Monitor level on the
radio was set to 20 while using the external speakers.  Side tone set to 800
Hz.
