P214 should plug in to J514 (that's on the right-hand side of the IF deck towards the rear of the deck).  It is the IF output.

P114 is sometimes routed to J518 for aligning the IF deck and perhaps someone left it there (or they were feeding the IF deck 
with signals from another source and using the R390A's IF and AF chain?)

BTW, my previous comments about the deck numbering were incorrect.  Deck "#1" is the main chassis, deck #2 is the RF deck.  
The IF deck is #5 - hence the jacks are J5**.

Hope that helps,
