Even at low power settings... the IC-91AD gets hot. Hot enough that I
honestly think it could be dangerous. (Yeah, I've purposely abused
mine... any good operator would shut down and let it cool.)
If I were EmComm leadership I'd warn users: The IC-91AD is in-general
not designed for this type of high duty-cycle activity.
