  Not sure just how warm the rig gets using it as a remote base. The fan 
 helps I know, but 50 watts on hi-power is pretty much fer continous duty 
 at times.

Not sure about your last sentence regarding duty cycle, but if you want 
continuous duty I'd think you'd need an external cooling fan even at 25 watts.

I use one as a remote base  never bothered with a cooling fan or changing 
the built-in power settings.  As a remote base the duty cycle is never more 
than 50% (same as when the radio is used locally).  I also have the ability 
to remotely change the power level so if traffic on the repeater did cause 
it to transmit more than half the time I could turn it down to low power.
