Does this only happen when the rig is keyed, or does it also happen when you adjust pwr when K3 is in RX mode.  If it ONLY happens when you adjust AND rig is TX, be sure you aren't suffering from RF in the shack.  RF in the shack often presents as something totally weird, that doesn't seem to make any sense.
