Nay verily nay he's gone ss (and if needed sources them from China :-)
I like the 807 as an audio valve and because many of the early marine
transmitters like Oceanspan etc. used the 807 for RF output,
drivers/modulators etc. Recall having shelves piled high with them...now
they are £40++ a shot )-:



We used to get thro them like they were going out of fashion years ago
on a medium wave pirate rig)

The 807 has a long history, whilst googling around I found a quote that said
the 807 was the valve that won the war!! ....2nd World War I presume :-)
