(If my answer is in the faq, just point me to the correct part.)

I have a room with 1 outlet (the normal 2 spigots) on one side, and
another outlet on the opposite side. Outlet 1 has TV and DVD player;
outlet 2 has (cheap) power strip w/computer, LCD monitor, printer, and
answer-phone transformer. So I bought a new radio and...

Radio is nice and clear on batteries, but when plugged into either
outlet (1 has a plug-multiplier) is too noisy to listen to. So can
this situation be improved? And if so, how?

TIA
