Limitations are calculated for conceivable sources of gravitational waves that may excite the observed 160 min solar oscillation through resonant stimulation. Consideration is given to gravitationally bound binary systems as sources of the exciting waves. It is shown that any resonance excitation of the sun by gravitational waves from a binary source, producing the 160 min oscillation, would have to arise from a 1000 solar mass system located within the orbits of the outer planets. Furthermore, a statistical study reveals that it is also highly improbable that two 1 million solar mass black holes are at the present epoch releasing their final gravitational energies within 10 parsecs of the sun. It is concluded that gravitational radiation mechanisms cannot be causing the observed oscillation.
