Not necessarily. The older 9/10/11-speed Campagnolo hubs use the
smaller 26x1 lockrings that are somewhat hard to find and fairly
expensive, so with that you're correct. These hubs can typically be
identified by their old-style steel or titanium threaded axles.

However, more recent (post-1999) hubs all use the 27x1 lockrings;
these are cheap'n'plentiful and in fact come with new cassettes.
Campagnolo started with including them with cassettes, then stopping
that practice, and now has resumed that practice again. Hurray for us!
