Q32 was pulled (2SA945)
can I use a 2SC945P or a 2N3904 as a replacement?

Is this the radio prone to the CPU dying if power is dropped with it on?

I have no battery near the buzzer/cpu, 2 jumpers on goes to 30Mhz.

Yes the 2SC945 will work. I have never had cpu go out when lost power. Second generation radios and newer used a capacitor instead of battery to hold memory. Hope this helps!!!
