Jeff, The PA in the high power UHF Mitreks won't last very long in high duty cycle repeater service. The power dividers are a weak spot in the PA design.
The best Mitreks to use are the ones without power dividers. The T34 30W model is ideal as it can be run at 18-20W and don't require any additional cooling. The 50W T44 Mitreks run fine with additional forced air cooling at 30W. I use a 12V 24CFM blower and a duct with a fan controller.
