I've just bought one of these off eBay for about $70 which is not cheap, however some Chinese junk sells for nearly as much.
JENSEN TRANSFORMERS, INC. - ISO-MAX® CI-2RR Stereo Audio Input Isolator
There is a single channel unit, however I didn't want to wait for one to appear and they are all $179-199 new!

If you look at the curves and specs in the data sheet you'll see why. The frequency response is wide and almost perfectly flat. Used by audiophiles and way overkill for a scanner, however I want to know that I am removing as much hum and noise as is possible.
When I receive it, I'll run a few tests with Audacity and see if it helps as I have a slight hum.
Any other suggestions, I believe the Radio Shack unit works very well?
