  Holes can not be used to explain the physics behind operation of vacuum tubes.
As an example you have to some how make a hot filament a absorber of holes and 
then how do 
you explain plate dissipation. The kinetic energy of a hole striking the 
cathode somehow generating
heat on the anode. Even physicist explain the operation of vacuum devices in 
terms of electrons. 
  Similarly, you can't explain the operation of antennas in terms of photons. 
You have to use 
EM theory to do so. 
  Conventional current flow is simply used due to mathematical convenience. 
Ben Franklin had a 50-50 chance of getting it right and he had an unlucky day.
It is too bad that he did not make the opposite choice.

To be honest ya'all, "what difference does it make".  When the task of 
instruction is faced with explaining something like 'hole flow' anything to 
allow your mind to imagine it taking place is adequate.  I don't know anybody 
that while trouble shooting a circuit recites a rule as to how the electrons 
move.  "Da hole flow in New York City I imagine."

Instead of being concerned how much power you can get away with while using any 
mode of transmitting, double your antenna efforts and save the amplifier.

Peace!
