The counter probe is inside my k2/100 but not connected to TP2. However,
it is still plugged into the control board. It's just parked along the
left side panel and grounded in a dummy jack in the back corner of the
rig (as per on old tip by Tom, N0SS). Is there a chance of creating problems if left this way? I left it
in primarily to keep from misplacing it when needed.

Ed,
If you are having trouble getting the K2 filters aligned, you might want to refer to the information in the K2 Dial Calibration article on my website www.w3fpr.com. Use Spectrogram (or another audio spectrum analyzer) to be able to see the filter passband.
You can download Spectrogram from the home page on my website.
Leaving the counter probe in the K2 should only be done with an unamplified K2/10. If you have the KPA100 or use an external amplifier, remove the probe.
