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.

I haven't found a value for L217 yet. This should give you a 2 to 5 W output. Howard WB4GUD -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
