Could it be the motor?

The second harmonic from 60hz is 120, which is close to where your hearing it? For what its worth, i get a peak at 100hz, which for the australian grid would make sense?

I used this app: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.intoorb…

I dont see a 50hz peak, but 100hz was clearly represented.

I checked against a tone generator, and realized that the lower frequency was actually 120, not 60, so I’d guess you’re probably hearing that. That puts the higher frequency at 212-214, which I also checked and that range matches what I’m hearing (for 100hz, it should be at around 177-180).

Interesting. I saw mostly 38Hz, 117, and 240. 100W LG microwave on US 60Hz with an audible fan.

Mine is also LG, not sure what its power output is, but i think its either 1000W or 1200W, yours must take forever to heat anything 😉.
