My first UHF repeater used exactly this setup. I cut off the PA assy from the
rest of the radio and milled the fins off of the casting. This was then
attached to a large heatsink and rack mounted. I used it for at least 5 years
and then sold it to amother Ham who donated it to the Wheaton Community RA club
where it was used for several more years before it was run without an antenna
one day. I used a 45 watt PA but there is no reason a 100 watt could not be
used the same way. Just cover the circuitry very tight or remove it before
milling.
