Don,

Although the current draw of the Unified Chassis is largely dependent
upon the number of modules installed, I think you can rely on the fact
that most MICOR power supplies are rated to supply 2 amperes maximum at
9.6 VDC.  If you build a power supply that can handle 2 amps at 9.6 VDC,
you should be fine.

As for the other question, rather than modifying the built-in metering
system, I'd simply add a separate meter with a biasing network to offset
the meter current so that no signal gives you a zero reading.  You could
also add a switch to cut in the bias circuit when you wanted the
built-in meter to read signal strength.

Other question: I use the 0-50 Micro Amp Meter on top of the 6 Ft Rack
as the S-Meter for incoming signals, and it reads half scale with no
signal... I would like for it to read 0 with no signal...
