I have an older ARRL Handbook showing a coil that is compressed and
allowed to re-expand via an internal threaded rod and two (Teflon?)
plates at either end. I have a Russian R-140 tetrode amp that uses
variometers, with complex auto control. Is "permeability tuning" the
correct description of a coil tuned with a none magnetic material
slug? Or is that getting pedantic?

Thanks for the replies.
