Over the years, I have seen many oscillators in receivers in which the signal 
was taken from the grid. I remember this since when I first noticed it, I 
thought it was very strange. This was at least 50 years ago.

I suspect now that this was normally done in those circuits in which the plate 
is "grounded".
