6U5, I think, is not. Actually I think pulling it and leaving the socket empty would not stop the radio from working. But if it were, replacing it would be a start.
If you have any pin-compatible tube like 6E5, thoigh not quite the same, it would work.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
