Dan,
You are taking me back many years, and around here somewhere I have an 
article by a gentleman named Sartori that made some of the solid state 
replacements for the 4 line tubes.  I think his articles were in Ham Radio 
or CQ mag though, not QST.  You might do a search of those data bases, as he 
published the FET's he used, and how he did it.  Hope that helps, or jogs 
the memories of some of the other list members as to where to find his 
article.  I will look, but it may take me a while to dig through all the 
junk ,hi.
73,
Don, WB5HAK
