[FLWSS] DEM 2304 and power amps

Yes, the beacons are off right now due to interference in lab testing. 
They will be back on soon I hope!

It would be nice to add a little power on 2304mhz  before the June
contest...so I'm thinking ahead.

Does the small sma relay supplied with the DEM 2304 transverter have
sufficient isolation if a power amplifier, say 10-20 watts, is added to the
transverter output? 

I am using a 902mhz DEM preamp (mast mounted) with a high isolation relay
and DEM 902 transverter (in the shack), and a footswitch, without damanging
the preamp.  I don't see why I can't do the same thing at 2304mhz but I 've
seem warnings about damage to preamp at the higher microwave
frequencies...is a simple sequencer necessary?  

BTW, I hope the beacon on 432.307 is off line 'cause I'm not hearing it.
