Ya'll must be about medium rare by now..??
Now, that reminds me a back-in-the-day story. We were at Fort Irwin, CA (just south of Death Valley), during August maneuvers. The temperatures were getting up into the mid 120s degree Fs.
Our jeep radios would overheat and even with their internal fans running, wouldn't transmit. My RTO had a brilliant fix. He went back to the PX and secured a bunch of cardboard soda cartons. When they were placed upside down over the PRC 46 radios, they just fit. So, when kept moist by water from our canteens, the radios would cool down so we could communicate.
THE END

I am getting worried about you, you have been reminiscing way too much recently.
