My brake pedal is hissing... loudly!

Is that the brake booster? It's an 83 F150. No power assisted anything. Every time the brake pedal is applied the hissing begins. However, there is still a good pedal feel with no sign of brake deterioration. I did swap out the one way valve in the booster but this made no difference. Should I replace my booster?
