That's what another friend suggested. It would probably be fine. I am going
to just replace the device since part of it is under the LCD. Also, since my
radio originally had a blown 1st mixer, it is quite possible that this chip
was subjected to ESD.

So I guess folks who are sufficiently handy to do repairs in their
HF-150s could do worse than sticking a heatsink onto the MC14569 while
it still works fine?
