Radiola Dave on Facebook confirmed his 84 also has a similar problem. Not very strong (nor is mine) but noticeable when the radio is not playing.
Oh...forgot to say, I think there is no humbucker in the speaker, but just in case there was, I plugged the speaker plug from inside the chassis. This reverses the field coil. While the humbucker, if it was there (which I think it isn't) would not change the direction, so some change would be noticed.
Well, as expected, no change whatsoever.
So, tomorrow I will put it back together one last time, to be taken apart only in case of something going bad and in need of repair.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
