Hams have a fetish for using mobile radios with a 5-5-90 duty cycle for repeater/remote base operations or gas bag for 5.5 hours a day, then wonder why the magic smoke comes out. There is a reason why a Quantar can belt out 100 watts 24/7/365- it was purpose built for that. A cooling fan on a mobile radio will buy time, but how long? And not all mobile "like" to be run at low power levels. The Radius/Maxtracs, unless the version designed for 2-10 watts out, is forced lower, puts out all kinds of oscillations and the PA actually runs hotter than at it's rated output.
