All of the TS940's I've ever used have this feature to some degree.
It
becomes more obvious as the bands become more quiet -- such as
when you move up to 10 meters at night. Tighten the CW VBT and
you will peak it. Put a resistor in series with your headphone leads
and
you might attenuate it to a tolerable level.
