[Elecraft] K2 Internal Autotuner. - longwire

I was using my K1 (20/40)on the back deck  with a logwire thrown in the trees
about 45ft long. The counterpoise was about 4 feet. The K1 had no trouble
tunning it on 14.030. I switched to the K2 10 W internal tuner  and it did
not like it. The best I could get would be about 2.95/1 on 14.030.

Could there be a problem with my K2 , or are the tuners just different and
maybe I need a longer ant.

I just assumed if the K1 could, the K2 would have no problem?

note: both radios had no problem tuning the antenna on 7.025.

Thanks
K4YND
