Don (and Mike),
Every cable connected to the box can be an antenna so it needs a choke.
I'd start with the coax and power. Use the guidelines in the chasing
noise app note below and the new HF choke cookbook, depending on the
size of the cable you're choking and the frequency(ies) that are
bothering you. See Fig 2 on page 2 and the associated discussion.
