Perfectly normal. If it DOESN'T go up and down, you have a problem.
PSK31 requires that your TX and amp be perfectly linear so the power
can go up and down. Any clipping, ALC or other compression will cause
splatter, unlike RTTY which is immune to such issues.
Do a google search for PSK31 tutorials for more info.
