I live in NM, which is very sunny and things can get very hot if exposed to direct sunlight. With a SSTRAN xmitter, what is the best type of box to use for outside mounting? Would a plastic or a metal box be cooler inside when exposed to direct sunlight with no sunshade? If I add a sunshade, would one box be better than the other? In all cases, I am assuming a totally watertight box with no ventilation (we do get some hard, blowing rain occasionally).

What are others in the sunbelt using?
