First off, it might have helped if you had mentioned how
you're making your scope connection to the board you're measuring.

Well, to start, I have the scope and the DC power supply plugged in to
the same surge protector. My circuit ground is the negative terminal of
one of the DC supply outputs. I connected the ground pin of the oscope
probe to this negative terminal.

When I noticed the 60Hz signal, the scope probe was not connected to
anything.

Thanks!
