It seems as though it loomed up after the K2 became a K2100 and everybody started talking about it - was this an "issue" with the K2 or just the K2/100? If it was just the k2100 - would building separates ala the K2 with and ECS for the amp make a difference?

Yes, it would help.  The K2/100 generates a lot of heat.  I put an extra fan on
mine, and -- combined with the stability mod from Elecraft -- has reduced the
problem to the point that I don't notice it.

The K2's over serial no. 3000 have all of the mods.
