Hi Vic, 


Yes, if you place your K3 in CW mode with VOX off and QSK off, 
the amplifier key output turns on and off during every Morse element.

In other words, you are saying that the AMP KEY output follows keying and not PTT?

you use the internal K3 keyer in CW PTT mode, the radio actually 
transmits in QSK mode risking damage to slow amplifier relays.
