Looking closely at the device, it may work. The die is larger, as indicated by the higher gate capacitance and higher gate charge. The reverse transfer capacitance is higher also... all indicative of a larger die. Probably, the thermal resistance within the package may be higher. The device should have a similar dissipation to the FQA, but there may be other factors involved.
These will probably work on 75 meters and of course 160. 40 will be questionable.
The 11n90s still have somewhat better characteristics, but the STW is one of the closest I've seen in a long time.
If I can get some eval units, I'll run some experiments.
