It should be FM, and you must pick up the signal from before the audio filter.  
You're looking for "flat unsquelched" in Motorola parlance ;-)

9600bps FSK is generated by modulating the carrier frequency with the digital 
bitstream directly, after passing it through a filter to round the corners off 
so it doesn't splatter.  As such, the frequency response needs to be flat from 
DC to whatever the passband of the IF filter is.
