My S/N [4398] is on a tag on the back of the K2. :-)  Mine is a 10W, 
ATU, SSB [which I've never used, no mic], AF filter.  No DSP, 160, or 
other accessories.  It was last aligned by Don, "The K2 Master."  It 
works perfectly, I use it on CW with my AlexLoop, mainly on summit 
activations and QRP field events.  So far as I know, it has the original 
MCU FW, it's buried in my SOTA Go-Bag and I don't have time to dig it 
out and fire it up to check right now, game about to start. :-)

For quite awhile, with the KPA100 and KAT100, I used it on RTTY. 
Finally sold the amp and ATU when I got tired of that.

I'd guess that you're just fine and "if it works, don't mess with it" 
may be the applicable maxim.
