When I connect a second amplifier to the pedal I will get a hum from the second amp.
Anyway to eliminate the hum? Thanks.

Use a two prong adapter on one amp only to disconnect it's ground.

First, subsitute another cable to the amp. If the amps have ground switches, try the different combinations. If that does not eliminate the hum, this should: Isolate the ground pin on the power cord of the second amp by connecting the power plug through a 3-prong to 2-prong adaptor.
Be sure to use the 3-prong plug on the first amp.It will supply a common ground for both amps.

Jim and John, thanks for your advise. Using a 2 prong adaptor on the second amp did eliminate the hum problem. Appreciate your input.
