[Elecraft] K2 Transmitter Alignment problems

I've done all the construction up to the transmitter alignment on the base
K2.  I do not have a signal generator that puts out 0.14 volts.  Bought the
N-Gen and it doesn't provide a strong enough signal for signal tracing.  So,
how do I find my problems cure?

 

Transmit on 40 meters, 30 meters & 20 meters works perfectly.  i.e. I can
align for 2 watts out.

 

Transmit on all other bands will not show more than 0.2 watts out.

 

I've re-soldered all joints in the LPF and BPF circuits.  I've checked the
values of all capacitors in those areas.  Any ideas?  Do I need a signal
generator to signal trace?
