[Elecraft] K2 Receive Issue

[Bernie & Cheryl]

Dear Folks:

I have a newly built K2 (#6922).  It works great, but now (after setting 
the filters using Spectrogram) I am having a bit of a problem.  In order to 
understand the problem, I need to describe how I am hearing things on the 
receiver.

On CW, I hear a carrier from the other station (i.e., strong carrier but 
zero beat with my BFO), with the tone of the received signal very loud and 
strong on one side of the carrier, and quite weak and soft on the other 
side.  My problem is that, when I try and contact someone, it looks like 
they are hearing me on the frequency that is identical with the weak and 
soft side, as opposed to the loud and strong side.  I called CQ twice 
recently, got responses both times, but the responding station's signal is 
on the weak and soft side.  I would say that the peak received signal is 
slightly over 1 khz lower than the transmitted signal.  Obviously, this 
creates a problem for when I try to make a contact.  Certainly, it almost 
completely eliminates my ability to use the filters unless I use RIT or XIT 
to get the rcvr and the xmtr to separate frequencies.

Both RIT and XIT are off when this happens.  I am not using split 
VFO's.  Did I screw something up when I set the filters?  I didn't seem to 
have this problem before I reset them.  If I did, how would I get back to 
the old level of performance?  I suppose I can just reset them to the 
values in the manual?

Thanks for any help you can give me.
