The headphone socket is not shielded in the same way as the standard 
audio outs, but you should not get too much noise out of the unit. How 
loud is it? I had a small amount of noise out of mine, but after 
juggling around with the power cables/leads and finding a decent earth, 
it vanished.

I know a few Repeater users who has earthing faults inside the unit... 
its not too uncommon. Check your earth, and if nothing solves your 
problem, then I'd contact Electrix ASAP to get a fix.

And welcome to the list :) You have some nice equipment!
