If you need that much gain, you're best off with an amp module from

At VHF, 30mW in for 10W out will have serious stability problems if done

Yeah, for simplicity the modules rule, but it's hardly in the spirit
of homebrewing, is it? Whilst it's hardly a beginner's project, I
don't see why anyone who knows what they're doing couldn't build one
of these from discretes and have a lot of fun doing so. Where do you
suppose most of these "serious stability problems" are going to arise?
