Hi, guys,

I am currently trying to activate EME operation from BY, on 2m, 70cm,
and 23cm. Maybe some of you have logged BY4RSA on 23cm in May. Thanks
to Bodo, DL3OCH.

Now I have the following setup:
XCVR: IC910H
Preamp: AG25, AG35
Antenna: 2*13ele yagi array on 2m
              2*27ele yagi array on 70cm
              1.8m dish on 23cm

I think I can get some of you in my log on JT65 with the above setup.
But I still hope to optimize it. So i need your suggestions.

I think I need the following items:
A transverter for 23cm or a RF amplifier: Yes, I can get the 23cm
module for IC-910H, but it runs only like 10W. any alternative
available?
Preamps: AG25 and AG35 can only bear 100W output, that's not enough
for EME operation.  What is your recommendation, like SSB Electronics?

There should be more. So any comment is welcomed.
