I think I know what it was: when the band noise is
high enough for it AGC normally (as in, S meter sits
at say S3), the noise is very loud until the AGC
reduces gain.  Takes time for an audio derived AGC to
"catch up".

I can say this, as listening this morning doesn't have
the thump.  So that's my guess.
