In WK host mode, you just send ASCII characters to the WK and it creates 
the Morse.  The only characters that will create Morse code are A-Z, 
0-9, and some punctuation ... that is only characters for which there is 
a Morse equivalent.  There are some host mode commands that will send a 
few prosigns such as AR.

I can only speak for N1MM+ but if you set it and the K3 to have PTT and 
Keying on DTR-RTS, N1MM+ sends Morse on the key line, not KY commands to 
the CAT port.
