fixed this by sanding off the paint around all the blocks. Actually I can still pull the frequency (BFO v VFO on the 7MHz birdy) by about 5Hz, but I need to hold the transmitter in front of front panel, with the antenna parallel and horizontal.

Sorry, that's 4MHz versus effective receive frequency. I believe when I first tried this, I used a GDO as an external source, rather than the birdy.

Sounds like going back to the K2 and making sure that I am getting good contact at all the corner blocks will improve things. I will try that. Not sure it will help all that much at 1.9GHz but it can't hurt.
