No, I do not believe that the problem's occuring on only one band rules out
loose cable fittings.

<<<There is much anecdotal evidence that the type oscillation reported can
be
due to loose coax fittings -- fittings on jumpers that are not sufficiently
tightened.
Replacing the coax with one of a different length often cures the trouble,
not because of the cable length but because when replacing the cable the
hapless operator tightens the fittings properly.
I am not saying that cable length makes no difference, just that my
experience has shown the trouble to be loose fittings.>>>
the reported problem occurred on only one band. if the problem were loose
connectors, don't you think the problem would be observed on other bands?
or to put it another way,
On only one band? I doubt it.
