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
