Paul at  TT, knew exactly what it was when I called this AM. The speaker

Replace it with WHAT?  Will TT provide a shield or  appropriate component (or 
fix the problem?)

N4IN  asked about:

"...then gradually a hum will start in on the  audio...(etc.)"


Is it 60 Hz or 120 Hz or something else? If power  feeding the rig is
pure DC, then how do you account for 'hum'? Something  oscillating
within, or maybe hum being picked up from an external source such  as a
power transformer too near to the rig? Please  describe.
