There's no need to guess. There are 5 capacitors, 2 inductors and one resistor contained within the large yellow circle. The component in the other yellow circle is a Zener diode.

Mrf300 is does get extremely hot. But however there is a work around this to cool it

Yes I know that. But what value ?

Doesn't matter now anyway.

Nice picture of a NXP proto
Look at the hairpin on the drain solder will melt)
I have a orignal pcb here woth the components and it's not working correct
The output match is not realy good and i think only calculated and not tested
also the match between the stages giving problems and is totaly not wideband
