[Elecraft] K2 CW Reception

I am building K2 #4901 and have just completed Assembly Phase II.  Everything checked out fine.  I put the K2 on an antenna and listened to some 40 meter CW.  I observed that when the frequency changed on stronger signals, the CW note became chirpy, as if there were two signals.  I set the tuning rate to 10 Hz and as the frequency changes at that rate it is really noticeable.  It sounds much like my Orion when I have the tuning rate set to 100 Hz or higher.  I have not seen anything on the reflector that addresses this problem.  Has anyone else experienced this?
