I have been successful controlling my K3 using the KX3. In a nutshell, I setup a serial server and client using VPSE software to wirelessly interconnect the K3 and KX3 using TCP/IP. Then, I use WKRemote to key my K1EL keyer remotely (assuming you have K1EL...The best!!!) and Skype for VOIP. It's not prefect but I have been able to work DX while watching the kids play in the backyard . I'm very busy right now but I'm planning to write a simple white paper on the subject in the near future.

If you use Cat to make a simple 3 wire null modem cable you could use the other wires for keying and audio.
