I just completed a full recap of 37-93 to include filter caps and restuffed bakelite blocks.  Powered up and stations are coming in strong (and no smoke lol) however I'm getting a pretty good hum across the band on station or not and it's not affected by volume.  If I turn it up the hum doesn't get louder and when you turn the volume down...the volume goes down but the hum stays the same.  The speaker is practially in shreds poorly repaired and  radio has not been aligned.  Any imput appreciated.
