[TenTec] Corsair I refurb project

[Bill Acito]

Corsair owners, check your manual.

Can someone confirm that the wire that must be unsoldered and an ammeter inserted to check the driver bias current is the red wire with the ferrite bead _outside the box_ that goes from the small meter shunt board to the solder lug on the PA box?...and not the thin red wire on connector 57? Or a wire inside the box?

The manual is not very clear, and I want to make sure I did this right. The ferrite bead wire is a long way away from the drivers.
