[DSP-10] Transverters with DSP-10

[Don Jackson]

I'm planning to use my DSP-10 as IF for some 1296 (EME mostly) work and am 
looking over available transverters.  I believe I would like to use the DB6NT 
MKU 13-G2 unit.

Several questions:
1. See no specs on how much 144 MHz drive is required for the transverter.  
Will the DSP-10 be adequate or would I need an amplifier stage?
2. Has anyone used this transverter with the DSP-10 and could give me your 
results, hints, etc.?
3. Any suggestion for a better transverter (within a limited budget)?

and slightly off this subject, but eventually it will come...

4. Ideas for a higher power amp between transverter and dish antenna?  I'm 
willing to build, but don't have a big machine shop at my disposal.

Thanks,
