You can read many details of my Satellite station & LEO PACK configuration on my QRZ page

Preamps used in this video :

2M   SP 200 Preamp Switchable 145 MHz - SSB-Electronic GmbH 1032-NF
70cm SP 70  Preamp Switchable 435 MHz - SSB-Electronic GmbH 1037-NF

I am running 100 foot of LMR400 into the preamps, which in turn feeds into 12 feet of LMR400 UltraFlex into the M2 Leo-Pack


Note - The internal preamp of the IC-9700 is NOT automatically turned off just because you enable the EXTERNAL preamp power. You must make sure that the IC-9700 display does not have the "P.AMP" illuminated. You can press the P.AMP/ATT button OFF & ON on the front of the IC-9700 to see when it illuminates so you know its off when using EXTERNAL preamps.
