Indeed.  At the other end of the spectrum we find a 1000pF  "bypass" on 
the anode supply.  At 1.8MHz, 1000pF has 88-ohms of Xc.   It is my 
opinion that this does not represent good engineering practice.  By 
comparison, at the lowest frequency of operation, the SB-220 has a 20-ohm 
 Xc HV bypass cap.
