Default Hum on Optimus STA-20

It may not be the same one I remember, but I had two different hum
problems on some older Realistic receivers.

One had a bad ground connection to the frame from the board to the
screw. Seemed they were using the metal chassis to send the ground to
the different boards.

Another one had a problem if the wiring was not routed correctly.
Having it too close to the transformer would cause the hum.
