Re: [VHFcontesting] need Mits M57762 1296 amp module

[Bill Olson <callbill@hotmail.com>]

Mike, Instead of continuing to search for the old bipolar module I think I'd 
try to "modernize" and rework your amp to use one of the modern MOSFET modules 
like the Motorola RA18H1213G. (The M57762 is probably 30+ year old technology.) 
RF Parts has the RA's for $71 and you can probably find them cheaper.. still 
from the US instead of Italy or who knows where.. It's not a "drop in" but 
easily retrofitted and requires a bit less drive for a bit more power..

my $.02

bill, k1DY

I have tried unsuccessfully to purchase one off Ebay. All I got were 2 bad 
ones. Can someone recommend a supplier of these. RF parts is out. Happy 
Holidays. Mike
