The comments already posted are good. Our unit has required final transistor replacement several times over the last eight years. They aren't cheap. We found it necessary to silver-solder the device because heat, at 45 watts on a busy repeater, melted standard 60-40 rosin core solder. RF Parts' price for the final is $68, much cheaper than the others we found.
