That works! (Thanks, Rich, Larry, and Michael.)
Even when aborting the CQ with the ESC key, the sidetone comes back.
I don't know about others, but I find listening to that CQ 10 times
between QSO's to be so tedious I'm inclined to go off and do something
else, or even to S&P at an even lower rate sorting through the dupes.
This will help.

If you are planning on putting the mute and unmute macros in the same
function key message, things get complicated. Basically, I believe you
would have to do something like this:
F1 CQ,{CAT1ASC ML000;} your CQ message {END}{CAT1ASC ML0nn;}
The {END} macro is vital, otherwise the two radio control macros would
both be executed before the CW started to send, which would end up
leaving the monitor on during the transmission. Don't forget the
semicolons either; the K3 needs those as command terminators.
I don't know whether this would actually work the way you would like
it to or not, but it's where I would start. There might be timing
issues; it's hard to tell without actually trying it.
If you put the mute and unmute commands in separate function keys, you
might not be able to use them while you were transmitting - or rather,
if you used one while the rig was transmitting, it might only be acted
on after the transmission was over, which might not be what you expected.

There are K3 commands to set the sidetone (monitor) level, but I don't
know how to put them in an N1MM+ function key macro. ("MLxxx") One at
the start of the CQ macro to set ML to 000, one at the end to turn it
back up. Does anyone know how to do this?
