Orion MKII board RF output level

I have acquired a working Orion MKII board from a 200D unit. What is the RF power output level of this board? I want to build or buy amplifier for it. I see some amps out there that only need milliwatts to make full output. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks, Don W9BHI

The 200D has the original Orion board, not the Orion MKII. Schematics for the Orion can be found in the schematics section of this forum.

AFAIK, all boards from the Hermes to the Saturn output 500mW max. on 160-10M, and 350mW max. on 6M.
