"The transponder is very sensitive so please refrain from using high power because 200 watt EIRP is more than enough."

I gave a 579 report to K9CIS's 200mW in a CW QSO.
Yes, the FO-29 transponder is working very well. I normally have to back off the power to the FT-847's minimum setting above 20 degrees elevation.
