I may be all wet here, but I seem to think this is understandable. FSK uses two tones, one is the MARK and one is SPACE. There are only two states, you will have one or the other tones on the air all the time. One tone is the base, and if the signal is un-modulated, it would be transintted 100% of the time. The other tone is a pulsed deviation from the base, so is only "ON" for short pulses when needed to form a character. Since there is hardly ever an even distribution of MARK/SPACE, the power out will not be the same.
