BOB:

MY $0.02 WORTH TOO:
DID YOU EVER THINK THAT SOME OF US OLD FARTS (80 YO) LIKE TO HAVE THE LARGER 
PRINT?
DOES IT REALLY MATTER WHAT SIZE THE LETTERS ARE?
AS A OLD NAVY RADIO OP WHO TYPED ON A MILL THAT ONLY HAD UPPERCASE I GUESS I 
AM USED TO IT AND IT DOES NOT BOTHER ME LIKE IT DOES YOU!
I MEAN NO OFFENSE AND AS YOU, I AM ENTITLED TO MY OPINION. . . .

AND YES, TOM HAS A GREAT COMPANY.

First -     Internet etiquette:  The use of all Uppercase letters is the
equivalent to shouting.

Second - Pointing out any singular mistake by Hayseed is just plain
wrong!  The number of kits they handle, carry, and assemble is worthy of
automatic forgiveness of the only error that I have EVER heard of Tom
and his family!

Third    - The low volume hum would have me going back and checking my
recap job.  The likelihood is one is either not been attached to the
original points that the old one was.  That or there is likely a cold
solder joint.

Go back, recheck your work against the schematic.  Then one can begin to
look for ideas as to this low hum.

Use a scope and start at the speaker terminals, and work back to where
it goes away.

My $0.02.
