Hello Ron,
Anyway I ended using 4 3.9ufd film capacitors in parallel for total of 15.ufd
far as those Solen Fast film caps. i did notice that

Well I did noticed with the volume all the way down there is vary faint hum
Far as this set there should be some hum right with the design or is 15ufd not enough
what about lead length of the capacitor leads in the metal can or weak tube.

Sincerely Richard
P.S. far as those Solen Fast film caps maybe I will order some for this and my Philco 38-10
