I had this problem with my K2. The transmit power seemed OK, but when I =
obtained a signal generator and checked the S-Meter sensitivity it =
became apparent the K2 was less sensitive on 20m compared with other =
bands. There is a modification on the Elecraft web site, it comprises =
adding a 10pF capacitor across each of the trimmers. The web site =
suggests the problem is low power output, but for me the power out =
seemed OK, it was just the low sensitivity.
If you have a couple of 10pF capacitors it's very easy to check if this =
is the problem.
