With the power off lift the #26 the 1400 ohm resistor then check the resistance from center tap winding #5, (that powers the filimants of the 71s) and the center tap #6 of the power transformer.

With #26 resistor lifted and even with all the tubes in place there should be no continuity between these two points. If there is that could cause AC hum.

I tried this and there is no reading when 1400 ohm resistor is disconnected. My manual calls the resistor part #25. #26 is the main filter capacitor pack in my schematic, from Philco. By the way, I also tried replacing the 2.5V winding with another transformer and the hum remained so it isn't coming from the 2.5V winding either.
