So in fact, it is quite the opposite!

This comment implies that PRL causes drain...NO IT DOES NOT!
I suggest you read http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=95986 and especially digiblur's posts with actual facts. Some good reading.

I can confirm that the latest PRL is an animal, the last 2 have been junk.

Reason for the battery drain is the scanning of channels. They started this in 60660. I downgraded because of it and my problems have been solved. I have not tried yet with the newest radio.
