Hi Barry,

This might not be very helpful, but I have had the same problem 
(although not as pronounced) with my OMNI VI+ for a few years now.

It appears on both TX and RX, but it is band-dependent.  It happens 
on 30M, but not on 40M or 20M.

Does your "warble" appear on all bands, or just some bands?

I am guessing that this is an intermittent connection (wiring 
harness, connector or solder joint).

I operate mostly on 40 and 20, so I haven't bothered to fix it. Maybe 
now is the time. :-)

73,
Scotty WA2DFI
