I'm using the BCM4343WWCD_EVB with WICKED SDK 3.5.2 and when I enable the bluetooth stack the power consumption doesn't drop below 9mA.  Calling wiced_platform_mcu_enable_powersave doesn't have any effect.  Is there a way to reduce the power consumption?  I'm going to be running this device off of batteries and 9mA is very high. 

Thanks,

-Rob
