Hi David;
You can tap DISP and rotate VFO B knob to see the current. Then set "tun
pwr" to nor, select desired power out, and long press XMIT to send a
carrier and see the current.
(do not TX at exactly 5 or 50w as that will cause a TX gain calibration).
That will give you a close reading.
The RX current depends a lot on if you have a sub receiver or 2m module
but you can watch RX current and change options to see the changes.
If you design a system for 2Amps on RX and 25a on TX, that would give
you plenty of overhead.
