Bill,
This may be a bit too late, but if you still have the hum issue, did you replace the line filter caps? They are a block cap at the bottom near the wirewound resistor with the power cord attached. This should be rebuilt with (2) .01 or .015 caps instead of leaving the old paper ones in. An article on philcorepairbench.com state something about this. Of course, if you look at my new posts re: this radio, you will see that I'm having my troubles too! Best of luck. Ron M.
