Jim,

You have both the K2 and the K3, so you don't have to wait for an actual 
"on the air" test.  Connect the K2 to a dummy load, and connect a short 
antenna to the K3 - place the antenna close enough to the dummy load to 
give about an S-9 indication on the K3.  Transmit with the K2 and listen 
with the K3 - you will know immediately whether it works or not.
