Get a replacement L33 and see if that takes care of it. You might wan
to request a replacement mounting resistor as well.

Leads under L33 are flush cut as flat as possible and it is mounted on
the rubber bumper with half the stem cut off exactly as per the
instructions. The resistor was pushed down into the center to keep L33
secure and to prevent the resistor body from being pressed on by the
bottom cover.
No luck on resoldering L33 or the crystals underneath it. However I
did notice that when I pull up on the resistor so it isn't pressing
down on L33 (the inductor is at this point completely loose and free
to move around. I have the K2 upside down with the bottom cover
removed and it has been running this way for several hours with
absolutely no drift. BFO range is 4912.31 to 4917.85 and stays within
0.01 of that as it warms up.
