[1] Does the DSP2 add significant extra current drain in RX? This is an important criteria as I'll be using batteries / solar cells and will have up to 6 AH of battery with me (2 x 3AH).

The KDSP2 has a "bypass" mode where the DSP itself goes to sleep and the CODEC is in analog loopback mode. The added current drain in this configuration is about 10 mA.

When it is operational, the KDSP2 adds about 60 mA to the base K2, or 50 mA more than bypass mode.
