Especially when desktop repeaters are 20-40w, and
most of them are made from mobile radios....
Check out the Kenwood page at www.repeater-builder.com

There's a reason that repeaters were made in a non-desktop
configuration:  good performance with high power comes in
a physical package that doesn't fit on a desktop !!!

If he'd started with a low power radio and backed it off to half
power he'd be a lot happier.  There was a guy selling full duplex
100w Mitreks set up as repeaters on ebay a while ago.
I giggled when I saw them there.

this "Full Duplex radio" for a desktop repeater????

I doubt it would run for very long at all at
full rated output, being a mobile chassis (if
it has the cable and control head).
I had a 60 watt UHF mobile Mitrek and had a
hard time running 40 watts with the stock
heatsink (yes, having a couple fans on it) as
a repeater.
You have a good point though Skipp. Maybe that's
why I was blowing up front end (mixer) FET's every couple
months in the Mitrek :)
