The problem was isolated to the CAT plug. The only way I found it was that
when I physically touched the shell it was microphonic. In other words, I
could hear myself running my fingers across the connector in the headphones.
I unscrewed the jack-screws and the problem disappeared. MicroHam pots the
inside of the connector with white RTV, so it is impossible to know if there
is any sort of ground pin issue.

 

Thanks to all who sent suggestions, especially Rene at Elecraft.
