Martin, Perhaps you understand incorrectly. The MTR2000 is already rated for continuous duty, in all bands and power settings. I first became aware of its durability when I found a Union Pacific Railroad repeater in Opticom service that was running key-down, 24/7/365, for over two years. Whether that operation is legal or not, is irrelevant to this discussion. I now have seven MTR2000 repeaters in service, both VHF and UHF, with no down time. Please, don't opine about the MTR2000's capability until you have a working knowledge of its durability in severe service at high duty cycles.
