The Icom units are easy to install and use with the 910, but leave a LOT to be desired in terms of noise figure. It speaks volumes that they do not publish NF specs that I know of...
I'm in the process of replacing mine with older Landwehr units.

Hi...
I am thinking of buying a masthead pre-amp for use with the Icom IC-910H for both satellite and terrestrial work.
There are the AG-25/35 units from Icom which are specially designed for use with the 910. But I have seen the SSB Electronics units on the web (SSB-SP-2000/7000) and also the Microset units (PR-145A/430A) and wonder if these devices perform better than the Icom units. Also, would the SSB/Microset units require a sequencer.
I would be interested to hear from anyone who has been down this road with an IC-910H.
Thanks in advance, 73 Martin M0ADY.
