[Elecraft] K2 Ke-Klonk !!

[David Woolley]

Sounds like normal behaviour, i.e. the relays reconfiguring the internal 
signal paths.  The one exception is CW keying one.  No relays should 
trip for key up and down.

Make sure that you can recognize the normal relay clicks so that you can 
tell if any of the other sounds are not normal.
