I think I found the real root of the problem. I hadn't notice this
before.
We had storms here night before last. K2 was disconnected from power
and antenna, but, not computer.
Looking at the shack Mac, i discover that the USB-->Serial dongle
isn't visible, further inspection reveals that
the dongle is FB, but, the USB port it lived in, is not.
If I had to guess, I'd say something nasty came in via shack machine,
but managed not to kill anything (or even cause it to hiccup) *but*
unspecified bits in the K2/KPA, and, the USB port.
I've got KPA U1 ordered from elecraft. I can add to that. I'd
assume safe bet may be the serial chain in the KPA, what about bits
on the control board? Anyone had this happen to them?
Obviously, no visible damage/magic smoke smell.
