Be very mindful about putting a radio inside a drawer because cooling is a huge issue and if it's enclosed just putting a fan on it probably won't cut the cheese. Cut the cheese. Probably won't work. So you definitely want to think about cooling when it comes to radios man because especially if you're going to be listening to something like cowabunga or something well you're only receiving I suppose when you're listening but for transmitting purposes and things radios get very hot when you're transmitting especially mobile ones and they usually have a big heat sink on the back and usually that's not even good enough you normally have to stick like a processor fan or something that's what I typically use like those little fans got four screws and you just put the screws in between the fins on the heat sink and it holds the fan in place. Now when you say repeater do you mean like a high power simplex node or do you mean like an actual repeater like that needs two frequencies and an offset and a tone and a duplexer and all that kind of stuff or do you mean just like a simplex hotspot?
