Hmm, not sure what class F is. You could describe this driver
as a voltage-switched class S though. Class S relies on a tank
circuit to produce a sinusoidal current from a square voltage
drive. In this case the tank is the tesla resonator. 

In one case the collector current was peaking 50% higher than 
it was supposed to - quite unpleasant!
