I may have been a bit hasty in concluding that there were oscillations on 20m; after I disconnected my K3's 20m antenna, the 20m signal looks fine.  So I may have just been overloading the K3's front end.  Not sure why the 40m signal didn't suffer the same issue, though.

Still have a very low power output (1.7W 40m, 2.0W 20m) and I've done all the suggested troubleshooting in the manual.  Components all look in their proper places and well soldered.
