Can you cause your logging program to generate the CAT command to simulate
pressing the SPOT button (SWT42;) ?
See the K3 Programmer's Reference, SWT/SWH Switch Emulation, page 17 or so.

I consider the CW Auto Spot function one of the best features of the K3. My
tone death ears are worthless for this purpose. I'm sure I pressed the
button over 1000 times this past weekend during the DX contest making over
900 contacts, all search and pounce. I wonder if anyone knows how to access
Auto Spot from the computer keyboard while running WriteLog. I would like to
be able to press either the mouse wheel or F12 to force an Auto Spot.
