Default AC adapter humm

I'm running a 6v 300ma adapter to run my Sangean ATS800 radio. I was
wondering if applying a couple of ferrite chocks like this to the DC power
cord would eliminate any humming noise created by the adapter.

The humm is not very loud, but it's noticeable. I know batteries are the
best solution, but in this case it's more convenient to use the adapter.
