There is nothing in the K2 that would shift only CW filters FL2 thru FL4
other than a re-adjustment of those filters themselves.
Is it possible that something happened to the BFO that has changed *all*
the filters, but the change was not enough to make a noticeable
difference when listening to the wider filters?
A BFO frequency shift would shift all the filters by approximately the
same amount - look for the unsoldered connection in the BFO area.
