If you can find some 5933 industrial versions of the 807 they are designed
for horizontal mounting and operation. The poor old 807 sags under gravity
and eventually shorts out. It may still be easier to find these than to
retrofit the modulator driver board in that transmitter.

PHIL,
funny you mention that, about putting the 807's vertically. that mod was
never approved by GATES.
so i have to make my own i guess.

If you must run a BC-1G as a full time main you might strongly consider
changing
the driver board orientations from vertical to horizontal.
Two pair of angle brackets, two eight inch diameter condenser fans, and the
807's will have a chance IF you can find some NOS JAN 807's.
Remember that the RF driver is the weak point of the BC-1T/G design. It
needs
every advantage it can get.
