For the most part tubes are very forgiving of voltage variations...as long as the voltages are within the guidelines for the tubes as you will find in a tube manual you are fine. The power supplies in radios like this is about as basic as you can get...half wave rectifier, unregulated, so there is no compensation for either load current variation or line voltage variation, so you can't hold it to too close of a tolerance.
