This works but it is far easier. If you are using the built-in Meyer in the K3, 
just go to CONFIG/PTT-KEY and set to “off-DTR”. 

Now go the n1mm config and set your radio comm port and check “cw” and then tap 
“Set”. Setup the port info and under DTR set to CW. 

Close the configurer window and the CONFIG menu on radio. 

Turn ON VOX and give it a try.
