Loud hum when i turn on my Model 70
#2

First and foremost, DO NOT power up old radios until the capacitors and any drifted resistors have been replaced. Components in old radios degrade with age (especially capacitors), and can cause damage to other components (most which are much more expensive and harder to find). Caps are relatively inexpensive and replacing them will help keep other parts from being overloaded. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
