Sorry I misread your original posting. Of course, it is very unlikely that two random
tubes would read good on on side and bad on the other. There may be a poor
contact in the tester. If you can grab a 5y3gt tube (electrically the same as a
80, but using the octal base), you might determine if the socket or the switches
in the tester are faulty. Good luck.
