I find the oink to be mostly in the 4th octave.
I thought it was supposed to be just above the
break.

That is where it is always worst. Below that octave, I don't think the
frequencies of the notes "shake" the wedges enough. Above that, most pianos
are into the double block configuration for the dampers.
