GPS Sample code works, but how do you reduce power?

I got this project to compile and work: https://github.com/NordicPlayground/fw-nrfconnect-nrf/tree/master/samples/nrf9160/gps

I have the latest radio firmware at this time: 0.7.0_29.  I'm actually using a DK 0.8.2 which required an external antenna, but when I use one it works fine.

I measure constant current around 30mA when doing this. 

According to this, there seems to be 2 lower power modes below what this sample is using: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fps_nrf9160%2F_tmp%2Falta.nRF9160%2Fautodita%2FCURRENT%2Fparameters.id_current_gps.html&resultof=%22%67%70%73%22%20%22%67%70%22%20

Also some information on lower power modes here: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fps_nrf9160%2Fgps.html&resultof=%22%67%70%73%22%20%22%67%70%22%20

Is there any guidance on getting the radio into these lower power modes?  Are these modes implemented in the radio firmware at this time?

Please make sure that you have updated correctly following this tutorial.

Then please check the SES download link in the "Getting started Assitant", since it sounds like you have an older version of SES if there are issues opening the project.

I have 4.18, I believe that's the latest.
