Well, most of their tubes are N.O.S., not used. And their prices seem to run up to 10 times higher than the same tubes sell for locally. Still I wouldn't throw 'em out!

BTW, the 274B is a "sexier" version of the 5R4GY, and would probably work here in place of the 5U4. And the 422A is a direct substitute for the 5U4, so although they're obviously not original equipment in this set, they're not out of place either.
