807
807 has no equivalent designation confirmed by the archive. Completed sales put the typical price at $15.40 per tube.
The 807 is an amplifier, beam power tube with a coated unipotential cathode, housed in an ST16 envelope and using a 703 A5-11 (low-loss phenolic) base.
## Ratings
Under continuous commercial service (CCS) conditions, the maximum DC plate voltage is 600 volts, and the maximum-signal DC plate input is 60 watts. Under intermittent commercial and amateur service (ICAS) conditions, the maximum DC plate voltage is 750 volts, and the maximum-signal DC plate input is 90 watts. The maximum DC grid-No.2 (screen) voltage is 300 volts, the maximum-signal DC plate current is 120 mA, the maximum-signal grid-No.2 input is 3.5 watts, and the maximum plate dissipation is 25 watts. The peak heater-cathode voltage is 135 volts maximum. Heater current is between 810 and 990 mA.
## Frequency and Capacitance
The tube has an F1 rating of 60 MHz and an F2 rating of 125 MHz. Without a shield, direct interelectrode capacitances are: Cgp between 5.3 and 10.0 pF, Cin between 9.2 and 14.0 pF, and Cout between 5.3 and 8.7 pF.
