It won't identify a DOS Master volume as DOS 3.3.  You really need to boot
into the DOS Master volume and then use a file copy utility that relies on
the DOS "file manager" interface or the DOS RWTS, and I don't think most
versions of Copy ][+ work that way.

CiderPress identifies DOS Master volumes on floppies, but the detection
isn't enabled for larger volumes, so it wouldn't find them on a CF card
(even if that were an acceptable solution to the OP).
