Radio is nice and clear on batteries, but when plugged into either

Have you tried selectively powering off the TV, DVD, PC etc to see which is the
culprit(s) ?

They all seem to be. Of course, I wouldn't have the TV on while
listening to the radio, so might re-check that plug.

On Radio Shack's site there's a $6 snap-on ferrite core gadget, or a
$21 AC line filter. Which, if either, may benefit me the most?

The ferrite core will almost certainly do very little and is monstrously
overpriced !

A line filter should fix it but you ought to be able to get one for less than
$21.

Thanks, Graham. Any suggestion of another source for line filter?

Perhaps ? looks about as good as that RS one.
