I know that substitution is possible in some cases. I don't have 6BA6 but a lot of 6AU6A.
I have a unknown AM/FM/MPX tuner made in Japan and "High fidelity" written on face. I want to change 2 weak 6BA6. Will it work? Will I have to "tune" something?
Thank you.

The tube will work fine. I did the same in a Lafayette AM/FM stereo tuner a couple of years ago that suddenly had a hard time picking up any FM radio stations. It worked with no re-alignment. I have a tube substitution book from 1977 that lists them as excellent subs for one another. Use it in the FM IF and you should be fine.
