Convert it to the RA18H1213G which is a replacement for the obsolete M57762
power module. The RA18H1213G requires significantly less drive power (200 mW
vs 1 watt) and a lower gate voltage (+5VDC at 1 mA vs +9VDC at 500 mA),
resulting in a more efficient and simpler hybrid power amplifier design that
does not require a heat sink for the control pin or bypass components for
the hybrid. There are several sources on the web detailing how to do the
conversion.

If someone has the final rf amplifier section in a module they don't need
please let me know. I have purchased what I had hoped was a good M57762
module but got a lemon. Thanks Mike
