I had the same problem with my HAM IV/T2X.  Solved it by grounding the case of 
the controller to the station ground.  even though everything should have been 
grounded (ac wise) through the power cord grounds, there was still a potential 
difference that resulted in a strong hum with the brake released.  no problem 
and hum free since I grounded it.
