Hi Gary,

I have built only 1 K2, but mine has the same power consumption (240mA)
during RX. So I think your current consumption is OK. You can have some
deviations of your consumption because of LCD backlight mode (day/night),
S-meter mode (bar vs dot), post-mixer amp Q22 biasing so don't worry too
much about this.

Keep in mind that if some of your 2N7000s used in the T/R switching circuit
were fried during assembly (like mine for example), it's possible to have both
RX & TX circuits activated (during reception!) and thus consuming more current
than expected. Just check the voltages on the drains to be sure MOSFETs
are healthy.

Wish you success in your build!

73,
Nikolay (LZ1NRD)
