One option John Larjkin doesn't seem to have explored is using Renesas HFA3096 five transistor array as basis for his
mononstable
and level shifter.

It offers three 8GHz NPN parts and two 5.5GHz PNP parts in a single array.

I put the NPN model parameters into a circuit designed by yourself.
It's late now but I got as far as Time step too small.

That is neither fast nor a monostable.

Yes ok it's an astable and certainly not intended to be fast.
It was intended only to see if the model worked. Nothing more.

It doesn't work!

Yeah, there is something very wrong with that transistor model.

Here is an emitter coupled multivib that can run fast. Should be possible somehow to gate it into being a monostable - worst
case
wrap a latch around it so it runs just one pulse?

Now we're getting somewhere. Thanks piglet. 2SC3838K typical ft 3.2 GHz and available.
However it's not recommended for new designs if you believe the rohm site.
So I wonder if it has a successor which is available.

NSVF6001SB6T1G looks interesting but no sign of a model other than symbol, footprint and 3D that I can find.

I like BFS17. It's fast, but not so fast as to get cranky. It
generally behaves.
