I've seen/heard this doing injection at audio. Expect that if your rf clamp is singing at the modulation frequency, suggest that is a saturation phenomenon causing the physical movement.

While doing an automotive BCI test, the injection probe started "singing". During the test around 56-60 MHz while applying the standard AM 1 kHz 80% modulation, I could hear a tone at about 1 kHz. This only occurred on some of the cables, not all. Granted the DUT has a higher cable density and draws more power than I'm used to doing, but I have been doing this type of testing for quite a few years and have never experienced this before. Has anyone ever seen (heard) this before?
