Hello all,
I have noticed that my countycomm GP-5/SSB gen 3 radio is consuming battery even when off. Using 2300maH NIMH battery, it will consume all energy in about 7 weeks. Is this happening to other owners? This is very anoying since I have to remove batteries when not in use. I know it always displays time and temperature but I did some research and the power consumption should be in micro amps. My unit consumtion is around 2 ma when off.
