Try reversing the phase of the audio by swapping the output leads of the modulation xfmr. Asymmetrical modulation? And too much in the negative direction is the flat line. Weak tube in the audio chain causing lack of gain needed for the positive peak. I understand what I'm trying to say. I reserve my right to say it wrong!
