Richard,
 
I've heard that some microwaves use switching power supplies instead of a
*heavy*, conventional transformer.
 
If your appliance uses the switching supply, chances are that it's "on" all
the time so the controls are powered up. 
That could be the source of your noise.  You might try a common mode choke
on the power cord...see if that makes a difference.  Study the choke info on
K9YC's website!!
 
73,
Charlie, N0TT
