My Flex-6700 is capable of operation on 2 meters, but the output power is approximately 10 dBm (10 mw). The 2MLDPA brings that 10 dBm output power to approximately 50 watts. The 2MLDPA also includes a 2 meter low-noise amplifier for receive which can be switched on or off. The 2MLDPA amplifier is powered by my 13.8 volt, 35 amp Astron power supply.
