Quite the contrary, Carl.  You, yourself have answered some questions of 
mine that begin to confirm some of Rich's theories.  I will reply to 
those messages when I have some more time.

I'll summarize the facts:

1.) There IS VHF resonance in the anode circuit of a tube amplifier.  
2.) Since virtually every amplifier has parasitic suppressors in them, 
then there is a reason for it.
3.) Current changes in the anode caused damped VHF sine waves in the 
anode resonant circuit (this is what you confirmed, Carl - specific reply 
later).
4.) Given the right circuit Q and characteristics, a VHF transient due to 
the current changes might not be a damped sine wave but could be 
underdamped and cause oscillations.

Instead of just saying Rich isn't right, please give some scientific 
proof as to why he isn't right.  The only one I hear espousing theories 
here is Rich.  If he is so wrong, give me a theory that you feel is 
correct.  Then I can analyze that.

I have not fully thought through everything that Rich is saying yet, but 
for the life of me, I can't find a hole in his theories yet.  I've been 
over and over it many times.
