Jon,
Since it does not change when an antenna is removed that does suggest the noise is coming in over one of the connections.
Can you run everything on battery and disconnected from the outside world? That is, run the Softrock from a 12V battery and use a laptop running on battery? Even a transformer based power supply will allow coupling of RF that can be difficult to filter out.
The noise still could be coming over the air (not thru a wire). Can you make it better/worse by moving the Softrock around, putting your hand around the case, touching the ferrite transformers on the board? Things could be radiating RF through the AC lines, or ethernet cables, or broadband coax cables. WIFI routers and cable modems can cause RF havoc. Unplugging your cable/wifi system would be a simple test for that. And turn off the wifi on the computer you are using to run the Softrock.
73,
Roger

What happens if you disconnect the antenna?
Do you still see the noise?

Would really appreciate the group's help in solving it and thanks in advance.
