23cm after SSPA upgrade. Some issues with balance to be resolved, but 1KW easily possible again. Also had some switching PSU failures, which I'm working on.

6cm was quickly installed on the dish to work the guys at the EME Conference. Had issues with drive level, unfortunately caused some damage to driver stages while trying to diagnose the fault. I have the parts now to complete repairs, and will learn lessons from the experience...
