Hey fellows.
In my case to kill the noise from the monitor was to glue a alumiun foile
inside the monitor casing and the groung everything to a single point from
there to ground.
Everything went quiet.! But the monitor died few day's later due to
overheat.
I got me a benq 15" monitor.
It's good and quiet, but best of all it's chep
Regards Robert tf3tty

Both I and Jim KD0S have had the noisy monitor issue, and have resorted to
purchasing monitors that are more quiet. The only way we got the job done
was to test individual monitors from a computer store that would let us do
that. Some will let you do that, and some will not.
Have tried the ferrite and it didn't quiet things down enough. Have not
tried wrapping in foil, that may work.
Also, have had instances where the cabling to the radio from the computer
ran next to a monitor, and it caused a lot of hum/ noise problems.
I wish you the best, 73 HNY and God Bless!

are created equal. If this does not help try wrapping the monitor making
sure to slit the or punch the foil for all of the vent/cooling holes in the
case. A pencil will work well for opening up the vents.
