Trying to do some planning for Field Day battery operation. We are
planning to use a KX3 at 5w, CW.
Could someone(s) give me a feeling for RX current draw. I would like
this to be with the Backlight ON, and other normally ON functions
activated. Likewise, what current draw should we see with key down CW
at 5w?
Thanks,
