I really thought I remembered seeing an AF5X about eighteen months ago, drawing 16-17W from the wall, but I could be wrong or the watt meter that it was plugged into was grossly inaccurate. This newer model of kill-a-watt seems to be better. On Fri, Jun 30, 2017 at 7:29 AM, Mathew Howard wrote:

I tried using the holder thing on top of the ePMP 2000 antennas once, but I couldn't see any decent way to make the cable stay in the channel, so I just gave up on it and stuck it wherever was the most convenient. It would be nice to keep everything all self contained though... I guess glueing the
