Phil,
With CW+SSB turned on, SSB will be sent at the carrier frequency
indicated on the VFO.
When CW is sent, the frequency is shifted by the amount of your
sidetone pitch, so the receiving station will hear a pitch equal to your
sidetone pitch.
Note that for normal CW, the signal frequency is the same as indicated
on the VFO, i.e. it is different in CW+SSB.
If you are sending in CW mode and the receiving station is listening in
SSB - and both VFOs are tuned to the same frequency, they will hear
nothing because their receiver will likely not hear a signal at the
carrier frequency - that does assume that both stations VFOs are
calibrated properly.

I have my K3 enabled to allow the sending of CW in SSB mode. However, I am not
sure how this actually works. Therefore, this question.
If the K3 VFO is dialed into 3850 KHz (for example) and the mode is set to SSB
and my sidetone monitor of the CW signal is set to 700 Hz (not sure if this
matters), what will the other station here if I send something in CW while in
SSB mode on my K3. In particular:
1. They are also dialed into the same frequency 3850 KHz, what will they hear:
a tone of 700 Hz, a tone of some other audio frequency, or no tone at all. My
only assumption is that they are in SSB mode and dialed to the same frequency
as I am.
2. They (the other station) are dialed into the same frequency of 3850 but
their mode is CW and not SSB while my mode in sending is still SSB. Same
questions, what will they hear?
