Bill,

I also have a IC-735 that I will be using as an IF for a DEMI 222 XVTR.

The Icom 735 transverter output is indeed lower than that of most rigs.
There are provisions in the DEMI 6,2,220 & 432 transverters for adding an
extra MMIC to boost the low power to the proper level.

Either talk with Steve or there is also a DEMI mailing list:

Hope this helps.  If you need more help, let me know and I can dig up my
schematic.

73,

Marc - N8KWX
