Not sure of the age or condition of your 390, but you might also just try pulling and reseating P120/J620 on the audio chassis. Among other stuff, this connector carries the operating voltage to the Break-in relay, K-602. (K-601 is actually the squelch relay). Both relays just ground the audio out from the AF amplifier V-601 through the interstage transformer T-601. Pins 1 and 2 of P120 carry the control voltage to the relay. You could measure the voltage there also, to make sure it's getting that far along when pin 9 of the rear connector strip is grounded.
