Testing transmitting tubes in a tube tester can be problematic. sure, a
really bad tube will read as such, but it is hard to get a handle on good tubes
even in a mutual conductance tester. Chinese tubes have a reputation for
inconsistant quality control. I would suspect that these tubes are "ok" but the only
real test is to put them in a transmitter and load it into a dummy load or
antenna at the frequency you will use it on. if you have a wattmeter for the
radio all the better.
