Then perhaps someone needs to educate Elecraft not to specify use of a torque wrench, in their assembly instructions. ;-)

Toroidal transformers cause very little acoustic hum, unless the core
is not tightly wound or the copper wire windings are loose!

If you have to tighten the mounting bolt with a torque wrench
to get the transformer quiet, something is wrong!
