Tom-

The K2 is GREAT radio for PSK. I've noticed no stability issues that would 
prevent me from operating.

The only issue is if you change filter bandwidths during a qso, you may 
notice a slight shift in the BFO (a pitch change when switching filter 
bandwidths). Since the K2 always transmits using the SSB filter, it is very 
important that the frequency shift between SSB and whatever narrower filter 
you use, is zero.  I've not found an easy way to get there, other than just 
repeating the filter BFO adjustment until you get it.  I think the BFO 
adjusts in 20 Hz steps which is huge in PSK land, so you just have to keep 
juggling until you get it right. I've been able get it to within a fraction 
of 1 Hz, but it was a struggle.
