[TenTec] Centurion 422 Bias Circuit Solved

[K0BX]

Jack, I don't know how you got those numbers either?  Maybe you 
transpose something/

See below,  but your SN would mean May 1993, 1st production run and the 
5th one produced.  That is if I read the information below correctly?
But thanks to everyone for the help.
