I had a moment today to check the jumper settings on the Cat-92C cards. All were set to High gain and fringing compensation jumper set to "out".
According to the docs, that is actually incorrect and the fringing compensation jumpers should be "IN' for my narrower AMPEX head and "OUT" for the Teccon head.

High gain may or may not be correct, it's referenced as a starting point for doing the calibration.
Moved fringing jumpers to "IN" for AMPEX Projector No. 1 cards according to docs, have a band onstage so can't listen test today. If this turns out to resolve my noise issues would changing fringing settings require re-doing the A-chain/Dolby Level? (Assuming YES, and checking the A chain is probably worth doing either way eventually before another mag print comes our way).
Teccon replacement head is still going to be proposed if I can sell em on it.
