If you're using octal type tubes, there are sockets made for industrial
relays which fit the tubes perfectly. They are as you describe; surface
mount with side terminals. They no doubt add a small amount of
inductance and capacitance which could affect VHF operation, something
to keep in mind. McMaster-Carr has them on page 819 of their online
catalog:

Very nicely done!!! Thank you. These are the ideal thing for an
experimenter.

One thing to watch out for. Relay sockets are not made to run at
high temperatures, so you have to make sure they don't melt or burn.
