It would be my guess that it is R19, associated with the front panel assembly.  R19 is a 100k-ohm resistor that was added *after* the first few hundred K1s to improve the linearity of the VFO tuning.  It will be soldered across two of the terminals of the VFO potentiometer, so it will not actually be installed on any of the K1's PC boards.

My K1 was one of the first (#175), so I don't know how K1 kits 2500 units later are being packaged.  I may be wrong.
