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.
