Default radios hum

I have several simple table radios, all transistor, made between the

The humming is coming out of the speaker. How can that be?

In each case, the on/off switch must be working, because when I turn it
on, a radio program comes out. When I t turn it off, only the hum. In
one case, I put a separate switch on the wire to the speaker, and now
the radio makes no noise when it's off.


Do your lights also, put out just a little bit of light when you turn
them off?
