You had a *heat* problem that was fixed by Frag/RTS changes??? I didn't change any frag/rts stuff and he's doing just fine now.
For whatever reason, I think my client's radio runs hot only on special occasions. I've no idea when or why. Right now I'm able to ping him w/o any problems and I don't think he's at home holding an icepack to it. Unless he did a bunch of work, it's still in his kid's closet because that's the only place his LMR400 will reach ..that has power. He was able to run for 3-4 days w/o problems and then whamo. Letting it cool down that one time has apparently returned him to normal operations. Kinda weird that his radio would choose to run hot all of a sudden and then behave fine for a couple of days. We'll keep an eye on it.
