JT,

No way!  Wait until you have completed the K2 and use the method 
described on the Elecraft website to accurately set the 4 MHz reference 
using 10 MHz WWV or other accurately known frequency standard station - 
follow that with a CAL PLL and CAL FIL to produce accurate dial 
calibration on the K2.  In the meantime, it is not critical, so just set 
the trimmer cap to its mid-rotation position.

If you want more information about doing the Dial Calibration steps, 
check my website  http://w3fpr.qrpradio.com.
