model 42-395 humming

I recently picked up a Philco 42-395. I turned it on and waited for it to warm up and it began humming. 5 or so seconds later the stations began working. The humming is the reason for this thread and I tried searching the others but could not find anything similar. You all know more about these radios than anyone else I could find and I'm sure it is a simple fix. Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

Thank you in advance

Doug
