It's wrong anyway Peter. As Rich's theories fall apart, he has had 
to "make" tubes oscillate lower and lower in frequency.

3-500Z's tend to oscillate above two meters, tubes like 4-1000A's, 
3-1000Z's, and 3CX1200A and D7's tend to oscillate near the FM 
BCB (100 MHz or so).

572B's tend to take off lower yet in frequency.

Generally speaking the lower the frequency of oscillation, the more 
difficult it is to cure the problem and the more likely it is to have 
damage.
