OK, four (4) turns of the power cord around four (4) of the toroids 
doesn't touch the noise.

That sort of says radiated rather than conducted to me.

The microwave was a wedding present, so it is at least (counts on 
fingers and toes) 13 years old.

I've put a recording up at http://www.kernsanalysis.com/ham/microwave.wav

7.131 MHz, AM mode 9.0 KHz filter  (note how noisy my location is even 
without the microwave...)
