Narrative:
Flying the standard chnnel 2 departure out of sna; just after thrust cutback; approaching 1100' MSL; we received an RA climb command from a target at one o'clock and indicating 200' below. We were reducing pitch from the 20 degree climb to 14 degrees; power was at 80.7 per the opc; and airspeed approximately 140 knots. I advanced the thrust levers to maximum to help with the climb at the low airspeed; high aoa. Target passed behind with 100' displayed on the TCAS. I informed departure we had a near miss; but the aircraft was under our nose and not visible. He said he had targets in our vicinity and would look into it. Once clear of conflict; we resumed the departure. The rest of the flight was uneventful. Aircraft was later confirmed to be a GA mooney.
