..is higher than I'd expect after changing out ALL the caps.

There is this "potentiometer" to minimize the hum between the 6A3's finals 
for matching...it's miminized.

I've only really heard one other old console..my Philco 37-620..which sounds 
OK.

Sooooooo...is hum to be expected??...or should I replace the electro's with 
higher value 'farads'?

The hum is not really noticeable with a station tuned in...

Tnx,
Steve T.
