My 817 has an RX drain of 450mA on RX and 250 Squelched... This is only
useful in CW mode and lets me listen for Strong stations. Or listen on a
quiet frequency for a planned QSO if the prop is good. It really applies
though on 2M. And since all of these will apply on the KX3....
Can you tell us Wayne, what the Squelched current Drain is
approximately; with Backlight off?
Thanks for all the time and work you guys have done. I have heard
nothing but good about your company and will enjoy being another "happy
camper"!

And of course the KX3's current drain in receive mode is far lower.
With backlight off it's as low as ~120 mA. Your batteries should last
a lot longer.
