Alan,

No real good ideas other than you should have got a Envision monitor. 
I have one here, it's a 17 incher and I paid a little over $100 for 
it.  It generates no noise that I know of.  My Sony 15 inch did too.

You might try changing the resolution and see if the hash changes 
frequency.  I assume you are using a grounded outlet for power? 
Could it be your video card inside the computer generating the hash?

Good luck
