[Elecraft] Problems aligning my K1 with ATU - help.

[Darwin, Keith]

I tried to align my K1-4 last night.  TX output was low on the upper
bands and I suspected alignment issues.
 
I took out the ATU and put a wire jumper into filter board J2 pins 2 &
10.  I then reconnected the RF board resistor R36 (one end was lifted as
part of the ATU upgrade).  I moved the RF board P3 jumper from "KAT1" to
"K1".  Are these the right steps to allow the K1 to work without the
ATU?
 
When I did the alignment, I noticed a couple of the trimmer caps in the
middle (C1-4 & CA-D) were touchy (intermittent).  I reheated the solder
joints and was able to get all 4 bands aligned on RX and on TX where I
got full power on all bands.  Things looked good so I opened up R37,
moved the P3 jumper, removed my temporary J2 jumper, and put the ATU
back in.  Output on 40 and 30 is nil and RX is weak.  20 & 15 are fine.
It seems as though putting it back together somehow knocked it out of
alignment.
 
I'm thinking I should replace the touchy trimmer caps.  Or maybe check
for shorts between the ATU and the filter board.  When I did the
alignment the filter board was held down with only the center screw.
Should I have mounted it fully?
 
Thoughts?  Suggestions?
