I repaired on of these with the same hum. It was the rivets to 77 tube shield base. I drilled them out and used 4-40 screws with star washers and nuts to replace the rivets. No more hum. The 77 tube being a detector and 1st audio tube makes it susceptible to hum. Plus the audio runs full tilt to the 42 as there is no audio volume control.
