And encoder noise it was indeed. I just realized my motor wasn't grounded (you know that big hunk of metal with electricity surging through it intimately connected to the encoder in question). :D As soon as I gave the motor an earth ground she dithers as quiet and rhythmic as a sleeping baby! Mystery solved. Doh! Just about now I think it is time to give myself a swift kick in the butt!
