I put a towel over my K2 when I noticed it getting hot in the sun, but
before it began to behave badly. No problems.
Thanks for W7MRG on 20.

However, it was *hot* outside and the sun was hitting
the K2's case until you could NOT place your hand on
it - very hot!
After an hour or so, everytime I sent anything using
the built-in memory keyer, there was a loud CLICK in
the headset/speaker about 250mS after the last
character was sent. This didn't occur when using the
internal keyer and a paddle, it did occur even when in
TEST mode, transmitting no power output. T-R was set
to 0.01. Also, when tuning, as the frequency was
changed from 140xx.30 to 140xx.31 (in either
direction) there was a loud click. Right on 14.060
there was very loud key-down signal with some
warbling.
