Johnny --
I know the transverter output is on the ICOM 756 PRO II is -20dBm//22mv
(0.01 mw) when the power level is minimum and
about -1.5 dBm (0.707 mw) or so when it is maximum. You must enable the
transverter mode by apply a positive volage (2 to 13.8 vdc) to the ACC (ACC2
pin 6) jack. I have not measured this on my ICOM 7800 (not at home QTH this
week) -- however the ARRL test of the ICOM 7800 measured the transverter
output at -3.3 dBm (.46mw) on 10 meters.

Typical ICOM manual onlys give the lower limit which is the same for the 756
Pro II and 7800. So the 1 mw setting should be OK.

Johnny,
Re-check that output level because it seems quite low. 22mV into a 50 ohm
load is only 9.7 uW power. I would expect something more on the order of
1
mW and upward.
