Hello Dustin,
I have a 47-1230 - the big brother of your radio. Similar, more bands.
Do you always have a hum, or just in some of the bands? e.g. do you have it in AM and shortwave, plus phono?
On mine, the phono did not work, but its transformer was causing a bad hum. I ended up disconnecting it to restaure the AM and FM radios. I still can't pick up shortwaves, but that might not be a technical problem (no suitable antenna might mean no signal)
you seem to have done a nice job on the recap.
