I have the same sound emitting from my DRS6A-NXT. As described here, the MFD does not turn off the radar if the electronics are directly connected to a battery source, as mine is now. The humming noise is loud enough that I can hear it in the cabin. It almost sounds like a bilge pump running dry. The advice I received is that I recheck the length of the power cable. If the connection from radar to power source is greater than 10 meters, this radar unit must be connected to 24v power source. My furuno techs had to add an extension and the run is greater than 10m. So the noise may be due to the low voltage to the radar unit. My tech will add a 24v converter to see if this stops the fairly loud hum.
