I did not get around to thanking you until after the original message was archieved, but to make a long story short. The new line was wired correctly, I checked, but I knew I had it right. I still went back and grounded it outside to 10 ft. copper pole driven 9 feet in the ground just to cover that possibility. Still had hum. Moved the Processor and TV to new line, still had hum. I finally tried your idea, to keep working cheater plugs in and out until I found the ground loop. Problem solved. Now if I had tried you method before I sledged that 10 ft. pole into the hard ground :) Thanks for the advice.
