A simple brute force test would be to procure a simple mild steel box
sufficient to contain the K2 on all sides save the front panel.   See if the
K2 in the box is still sensitive to nearby power fields.  If not then
proceed to use less shielding in a series of tests:

 Experiment with sheets of steel to cover just the bottom of the radio, one
or both sides, etc. to effect the simplest shield arrangement.

Foil shielding tapes are available, and could be used to fashion smaller
shields as needed.  Perhaps only shielding the areas of circuit involved
with frequency generation by under board added steel ground plane will be
sufficient.
