Look for an antique radio society. There is someone here who is in FL, but I do not know if he'd be interested.
Then again, if it plays, it is mostly OK.
If the hum started suddenly, it's one thing, if garduallyt - another.
If you got it off of someone and played it without having full recap, and the hum has been present all that time - it is not a fgood thing to do, but a full recap will likely cure it.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
