The famous or not so famous Grado wobble

I currently have a Grado Reference sonta (super sound) cartridge.....and after about 300 hours...it has developed a wobble or shutter while on the record.....and not ALL records?? This has happened before (a long time ago) and I was wondering if any of you hve experience the same? What did you do to fix it?? I, at one time, even had Joe Grado himself look at the set up and he could not find a cure....could it be put cartridge set up? poor arm (doubt it) ?????? Any help????
P.S. I have a Linn Sondeck with Itoch arm on a very light table (could this be the problem?) on wooden floors.

i have a platium reference on a fulton arm, with an ERA table. haven't had the wobble despite the fulton arm operating with neither anti-tracking or skate. isolation as previously mentioned a priority area. i have concrete floor brite star litter-box, and sorbo feet as the TT is very rigid.
back to basics... check table level and balance.
let us know what happens. kurt
