From personal experience,the SAV-17 output brick is unforgiving of any high duty cycle use and will die. They are not cheap to replace either. And I only use my TMV7A for mobile use. This radio is a poor choice for remote base transmitting. I would dig into the radio before the output stage and use an external amp rated for cont. duty,such as a MastrII PA or similar. Then you would have a killer remote base radio with all the features you wanted. 73,Lee,N3APP
