This is certainly possible. However, when I took a small portable AM radio, tuned between stations, and moved it around my 861, the only noise source I found was the display. Only when I attached an unshielded wire directly to the digital output did I get some noise from that part of it (I don't normally use a digital cable as I use the audio output of the 861). The power cord did not generate any noise I could pick up with my cheap radio test.This makes it seem to me that the Wadia is allowing other RF sources to contaminate the internal DC power busses through its AC power input. Power supplies may or may not provide effective isolation from contaminated lines; in this case it seems the Power Wraps make up for some deficiencies in the design of the Wadia power supply.
