Possibilities:

1) audio out-of-phase
2) insufficient drive to grid of final
3) final not properly loaded
4) insufficient capacitance in filter of HV supply to final/modulators
5) improper impedance match in mod tranny

If after checking the obvious and it still occurs, just put it on the 
air. I have one rig that does this but still sounds quite acceptable. 
You can look deeper into it later, but have some fun with it in the mean 
time...

Does the modulation envelope look OK on the scope?
