I want to use a PLL IC with the minicircuits POS-150 VCO for an FM broadcast transmitter. All the schematics I find use very old chips that are only on ebay from china and maybe fake (TSA5511, MC145170, etc.)

I want a new chip that I might be able to get from a reliable source like digikey or mouser that would work for this application. I don't mind SMD as long as it's not QFN.
 

You're looking for a modern PLL but it's very difficult to find a device with a package different than QFN.
I suggest you to consider QFN package because it's not very difficult to solder it.Put some solder paste on each pad ( even manually) and then heat the device carefully by using a hot air soldering pistol.
 

Try the Analog Devices ADF40xx and 41xx series they will cover 150MHz and are are available in SOIC
