Nope. I'm a CWer. But the use of MOSFETs at RF for Anything other than
SSB (FM & AM in particular are ideally-suited) is as Kosher as Jim
Thompson's Saturday afternoon lunch of salt beef sandwiches with extra
dill.

Motorola used to list RF MOSFETs for linear amplifier use. I don't know
if they went to On semi or FreeFall.

I believe Tyco. Yes, that same Tyco.

Dad just bought a 2kW FET amplifier. It's ex-industrial use, but has MRF
line transistors, and we expect no trouble putting it online for 160-10
meter use.
It's a dozen MRF-150s

Look up the specs (and the prices (OUCH)) on the MRF-154.
