I got K1-4 s/n 2258 (40, 30, 20, 15) out of the drawer yesterday, hadn't used it in about a year.  With wire antenna on 30M, QSO with AL at 1W.  Then on 15M, QSO with FL at 5, 1, and 0.1W (!).  Then ragchew with op in CA using 5W.  His yagi helped no doubt.

Had forgotten what a fun, capable radio the K1 is, too bad the 4-band filters are no longer available.
