What kind of hum are you getting? Is it background hum, affected by the volume control, or is it a loud overpowering hum that drowns out everything and is loud even at low volume? If it's the loud kind of hum, you need to replace the electrolytic capacitors. Other sorts of hum can be other failures, many of them capacitors as well - have you recapped the set, or is it original?
