John –
My EME2-432 preamp arrived on Friday, the day before an ARRL UHF contest, which was the first test of the 432 preamp. My 432 radio is an Icom IC-9700 and the sensitivity was greatly improved. I did a few tests with other stations running FT8 and in some cases could not decode the stations with the preamp in bypass mode but they had very strong signals with the preamp enabled. I also have the EME2-144 2meter preamp and have been completely satisfied with its performance.
