Stryker 440hp does not use a MOSFET final but a RF bipolar transistor M1104 that has now been replaced with SD1446. Mitsubishi make a 100-watt MOSFET (RD100HHF1) check out www.rfparts.com/mitstran.html it maybe worth reading this doc www.polyfet.com/rftopics.pdf before you go down this road. A few Jap HF ham radios have started to use Mitsubishi MOSFET?s. What is an mrf-2030 when it is at home, do you mean ERF-2030? What was the output power you was getting form mrf-2030 / ERF2030?

hello rick,hows it going bud.well i hope.i thank you for the info.on the mosfet final.and you were correct it is a erf2030,that i tryed,my bobo...well like i said in another message.i have tryed the erf-2030 in a single final cobra 148gtl,and was not impressed at all.matter of fact the stock 2sc1969,out did it on power output.course it maybe a different ballgame on the double final galaxy.dont know havent gone there yet.there is also another final like unto the erf2030,it is something like an irf-1520 or something like that i was reading about.dont know if it would out perform the erf-2030 or not.just tinkering,your friend in the mag. the ramblingman (jimmy keys) and thanks again for the info.have a good day.

Hey Rambling Man. I installed one of those kits in my DX 44V, and I received pretty good results. Here is a link to a fellow in Wisconsin.

Latest Stryker SR-440 has one 520 driving another 520 driving two IRF520s. No big flange-mount part. At all.

Got some pics of the inside of one.. I'll dig them out and post them if anybody's interested.
