## Discrepancy

WHILE OPERATING ON RT PACK, A/C CABIN ALTITUDE REACHED 9800 FT AND CONTINUED TO CLIMB UNTIL DECENDED TO 10,000 FT.  AT 10,000 FT CABIN STABILIZED AT 1.0 PSI/8000 FT, IN BOTH AUTO AND MAN MODE.  DEFERRED PER MEL 21-16-1C.  RT OUTFLOW VALVE REMOVED AND A/C FLEW UNPRESSURIZED DMI 2273.  REINSTALLED OUTFLOW VALVE AND PRESSURIZED A/C.  FOUND NORMAL AFTER LT ACM AND REPOSITIONED DISTRIBUTION LEVER.  THIS CLEARS DMI 2273.
