Telefunken Opus Stereo HiFi 7084 W

Just picked this up a week ago and thought I'd post a couple of pictures. It's a very cool radio Even got the two external speakers with it Spent a couple of days bringing it up on the variac and it does work,
but has a hum. It will receive on all bands using the internal antenna except for AM, can't pick up anything. There's a part missing that's attached with a string to a knob in front that I am guessing was some sort of ferrite wound antenna for the AM. Don't know where to start as far as eliminating the hum. I understand it must have something to do with the caps, but how do you figure out which one, short of replacing them all them? Varnish is crackled sort of, but overall I'm pretty happy to have it. Not bad for a dump find
