Paul,
There is a difference, but it is a tiny difference, not really worth mentioning - depending on the antenna port you select a relay inside the radio will either be energized or not. It consumes a trivial amount of energy (in my opinion), but it is a difference.
I'll leave it for another list member to specify which antenna port increases power consumption - I'm too lazy to look it up, and I don't want to say the wrong thing...
And as was noted already, be sure and specify to the radio which antenna connection you are using.
Good luck,

Does it matter which antenna port you use for VHF/UHF versus HF. In other words (assuming the proper connector) can you use the rear HF Connector for VHF??
