It stays constant, but it doesn't drown out a station when I tune it in. It kind of stays in the background.
One more thing I forgot to mention. When I first got it completed, there was no hum. I aligned both AM and FM without a sound. I put it in the cabinet and played it for about 15 or 20 minutes and then it started. Does that help?
