I'm just thinking that your high-frequency noise is leaking in via some
non-obvious path. What happens if you leave your scope ground connected
where it is, but terminate the probe in a, say, 10K resistor to ground
(i.e. taken off the PSU supply rail)? I'm wondering if the noise is
really on the DC line and not just being picked up via a ground loop.
