Ever since a lightning storm last week it seems like I'm getting a lot
of line noise (60 cycle hum) from my Pro 92. Running on batteries it
seems fine. Would you all consider it likely that the "wall wart" is
the problem or is there some other type of transformer in the radio
itself.

Thanks

Sure sounds like the AC adapter could be the problem. I would take it to a
place like a RS, and ask if they have a "universal AC adapter" that would
fit it. Act like you don't know what they are, and see if they will demo one
for you. If they can see if the noise is gone when you try theirs, then you
will know if you need to replace the one you have.


Why act?? Tell them you think the original one has become noisy and if
their's runs the radio and is nice and quiet you'll be purchasing it.
Also, instead of the universal model, test one with the same voltage and
current capacity as the original.
