Allen,
In this case, it my be wise to get a TIB, and when you switch the TIB
To on it triggers the ALC in the radio to a lower power setting.
And when you shut it down, back to normal power so you don't over drive the
Transverter, if you only want to use 10 watts from the transverter then
adjust it down, (KISS) (keep it simple stupid) less points of failure and
less things to remember during the heat of the battle. 

Also the low power category is less then 150 watts, unless you mean QRP

Hi: More rookie questions:
1) With regard to a DEMI 60w transverter. I want to be in the "low 
power" category 10w in contests. How can a do this?
2) Also I have a Icom 756Pro and I use it for 6 meters in the 
contests. Well if I have a transverter on 10meters and I have to turn 
the power down and I guess that I have to move it backup when I am on 
6 meters?
3) The 756Pro with the transverter does the frequency read out 
display what 903 freq that I am on?

Thanks
