Actually, the output is about +26dBm, so it's closer to 400mW.
I've also tried a VX-5 on low power, and got the same result. Tim On 7/30/2010 9:52 AM, Kevin Custer wrote:

Most of the MICOR exciters I have converted to 6M result in more than 270 mW of power - in fact, 400 to 600 mW is common. I wonder if something is amiss at the exciter, like a bad crystal or stage not peaked correctly generating noise. If you have a 6M hand-held or mobile rig capable of transmitting on your repeater output frequency, try substituting it for the MICOR and see what happens to your receiver with one of these transmitting instead.
