The K2 has a different total system gain on each band, with highest being
on 40m.  So, if you set your S meter to S9 with a certain input on 40m,
then it will read lower on other bands for the same input level.

If I ever want to use the S meter seriously, such as in a single band
contest,
like 160m cw, say, then I calibrate on that band and don't worry about the
reading on other bands.

Conversely, if you set your S meter to S9 on some other band, such as 10m,
then
it will read higher on 40m.

Good luck and 73
