Take the area of solar panels, multiply by 3, thats the area of black body thermal radiation surface. The sattelite will chillax to 27 deg C (300 K):

And is that "Minor" ? Is that actually practical on a reasonable budget? Aren't there better uses for the solar panels etc?
if you focus on shedding heat and make it sound like an impossibility, don't be surprised when people describe what it would take.
So that's a "no, no and yes".
