I used to get that with my old AM Tx in the 50's! Cause: Lack of grid
drive and improper loading/tuning. I wonder which it is now...
You are correct, it is no doubt still the same today. Adjusting those old
transmitters could be difficult, maybe make a bad job worse. Downward
modulation on AM transmitters was considered poor engineering amongst radio
amateurs in the early years, and poor CW even worse.
These days some do not know what either Downward mod or CW means!!!!
