Identification of SP cells

Hi Flowers,
I wish to identify SP cells distinguished via their low fluorescence in the
blue (using a 450/20 BP filter) and the red (using a 675EFLP optical
filter) following excitation of Hoechst dye with a uv laser line. Currently
I'm using a Coherent Innova Enterprise with dual visible and uv lines,
however the uv power output (<60mwatts) is insufficient to optimally excite
the dye.I would be very grateful for anyone with SP experience who could
advise me as to their laser configuration to achieve higher uv laser output
In addition, I run a FACSVantage SE and would like to hear from anyone
using this sorter to identify SP cells what optical / PMT configuration
they use for emission detection.
Thanks!
