It sure makes a difference when things are designed for low power. My whole daniels rig, receivers and transmitters for 2M and 440, draws about 80mA at idle. I have a mobile radio that I use for a control link, which draws about 300mA at idle. In the daniels, there's a lot of attention paid t

Seems like in the old days, when the Phoenix was new, that the synthesizer and microprocessor consumed a bunch of current and that from a low power / solar power, etc stand point, a crystal controlled radio was more conservative of power - maybe a crystal talkie or the like would be more practical.
