I had a medical exam, as I have reported above, and my ears tested by an expert. And I have been psychologist myself, so I know what you are after. Of course I have considered these kinds of explanations, but I must refuse these kinds of explanations. Hum-sufferers often get dismissed as suffering from some kind of illness or nervous damage or hallucinations. It just is not true. You cannot live-record hallucinations on magnetic tape. But this has been done, check youtube.

I cannot say with all certainty that it is either accoustic wave-transmission via dhte carrier medium of the air, or electromagntic listening. I also cannot say with certainty that the Hum has just one origin or is just one phenomenon, or maybe is a label that must be understod to describe a whole group of different possible manifestations.

Certain i am of this only: no matter whether I hear something accoustically or have the sound created by my brain in interpretation of signal input - the source, the cause of this is not a hallucination, and it is outside of my body, in the environment, may it be near or distant. The white noise of the spaceship ambience indicates that it is indeed an accoustic wavefront hitting my place, because the CD's sound playing interferes with the Hum, while other White Noise sounds - for example rain falling or waves hitting the beach - just get drowned if I set the volume high enough. Its different, and the spaceship sound is very close to the frequency range of 100Hz.
