The periodic amplification of solitons is shown to develop an instability. This becomes evident through the appearance of a series of discrete sidebands in the soliton power spectrum. These sidebands do not exhibit the power tuning characteristic of the modulational instability, but instead follow an inverse square root dependence on the amplification period.
