Gil,

You cannot do both 20 meters and 10 meters on the 4 band board.  The Low 
pass filter for the 2 higher frequency bands is shared, so if the LPF 
were to pass 10 meters, the 2nd harmonic of 20 meters would not be 
suppressed.

If you use the 2 band board, the Low Pass Filter is dedicated to a 
single band, so that shared problem does not occur.

The 2nd problem with 10 meters on the K1 is finding a fundamental mode 
crystal that will operate at 36 MHz.
