Uniden Bearcat 980 SSB NPC or swing mod help

I recently traded for a 980 and it looks and works like new except it does not transmit due to a blown final that I already pulled and checked with multimeter and it's shorted so I'm assuming this is a MOSFET transistor with no writing or marking on it just smooth darkness.
Cannot find online info on the type of this assumed MOSFET so instead of asking multiple questions leading to the climax I'll just come out and say it,
Can I put a IRF520 MOSFET in it's place make the radio transmit again ?

The correct part is IRFZ44

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes

    Wes, it's better if you start a thread on the main forum, more people are going to see your question.
  • @ heartbreaker3473:
    Okay, sorry, will put in a forum
