After properly performing the TX Gain calibrations, I don't
see any significant difference between tones (K3 s/n 477):

               Mark       Space     Difference
   at 100W    100.50     100.40      -0.004 dB
       80W     80.70      79.50      -0.06 dB
       60W     60.90      60.00      -0.06 dB
       40W     40.50      39.70      -0.08 dB
       20W     20.22      19.61      -0.13 dB

Measured into a known flat 50 Ohm dummy load with TelePost LP-100
watt meter.  K3 is keyed in FSK, power at mark recorded and the FSK
line closed and power at Space tone recorded without opening PTT.
If PTT is opened and closed between reading power at Mark and Space,
the two power levels are identical within the resolution of the
watt meter.
