The 2 M repeater is running 20 watts into a Henry amp at 90 watts 
currently. Thee 70CM one is 20 watts out, I have an amp here that I may 
put behind it to test with, not as beefy as the Henry but it will give 
us an idea. At this point I am out of jumper cables with N connectors, 
if anyone has a cable the club can borrow/have (3' long enough) please 
let me know.

73,
