Are you sure it simulates? Transistor looks reverse biased, some odd looking values, Cout too small, 10nF more probable, L2 too large, a real component is probably well past self resonance at 34MHz, C7 too large. The direct drive into a 50 ohm load may be ambitious, I'd have expected a buffer amp on the oscillator output giving a higher load Z to your osc. Check the DC bias without a resonator, check the system as a buffer without the resonator or C1 fitted etc. Hope this helps.
