Tom,
The LCD display on the K2 has "been what it was" from the beginning
(even for Field Test units).
The backlighting is white (LEDs, not incandescent), but the color of the
actual display is green when backlighted. Actually, it is green when
frontlighted (without the backlight) as well, but more gray than green.
There is no amber LCD for the K2, never has been. I think some posters
confused K2 with the KX2 (which does have an amber LCD - same LCD as the
K3/K3S and the KX3).
The LCD display is a custom display, so duplicating that custom display
for someone who wants an amber display would be quite an expensive
proposition. In other words, an amber LCD for the K2 is not practical.

When it's off it's sort of grayish. When I power the K2 up there are
(what looks to be) two small light bulbs on, or behind, the left and
right sides of the display, When lit they give an amber-ish (if that's
a word) color. It's actually the color from the two "clear"
incandescent bulbs.
Does anyone with a low serial number have this and can better explain it?
