The 120 because small is certainly the faster, MSRF is TO-220 slower but also soft recovery so it's possibly a better compromise when for digital. Especially for clocks. The rf small value resistor does some RC EMI filtering with C1 in all cases though. I would be more inclined about deringing the Tx & diodes combination than finding the super suitable bridge diode type if building detailed.
 
Salas, I am populating Ubib board for a supply 24v./1,5A.
I am concerned M1 in it's limits using high speed Fairchild FQP3P20.
What can I expect if exceeded, a burn?
I have not in parts bin a IRF9630, but seen a pair IRF9530, maybe still useful in this application. Does it slows much the performance?

9530 is even slower unfortunately. FQP can withstand if well sinked. Worse thing to happen is baked until failure. In CCS it usually breaks open and cuts the circuit on fail because M1 is in series. Not big trouble. Not guaranteed but usually fails open, not shorted. Don't forget to fuse in any case.
