Evert,
I have no idea why you removed the K60XV when you remounted the KPA100, they
live nicely together (unless your K60XV used the BNC connectors in the top
cover.
The 4.7 pf capacitor is not your problem - that capacitor is only used on 40
meters.
To provide more help, we need to know what the power output from the basic
K2 is. Remove the KPA100 and see what power you can develop on each band.
If the power output from the base K2 is low, you can look into that, but if
the base K2 power is up to par, the KPA100 need the attention.
