Has anyone out there built a solid state replacement for

I'm in the process of building a power supply for
my R-392, and the output tube draws a lot of current.
It'd be nice to do without it.

I seem to recall an article in "73" about building a solid state
AF module for the R-392. Late seventies or early eighties, by
Gary McClellan (I likely don't have that spelled right, but the
guy wasn't a ham, but did write a fair number of articles at
the time, mostly about test equipment).
