You need to re-cap the amp. Look through the old classifieds here http://www.antiqueradio.com/ for someone in your area doing radio restoration.

Greetings Phellow Fonoteers,

Can anyone recommend a repair man for an electric-powered, 78-player,
hopefully in the Portland, Oregon area?  I have an Admiral  tabletop that's
likely from the 1930s.  It has some interesting Art Deco  features, and has a
thumb screw at the head of the tone arm for changing  needles.  The turntable
makes enough noise to stampede the  cattle, and when the tubes warm up it
hums very loudly, and I fear it will  frighten the peasants who have no way of
appreciating what manner of sinister  experiments are going on here.  Also,
the music sounds garbled.  I  suspect it has an electrical short going on
but this isn't something I know  a lot about, but I don't want to awaken my
creation prematurely, or burn our  castle down.

Anyway, if you know somebody, possibly an antique radio man, I'll call  him
or her forthwith.

Many Thanks,

: )

Edward
