Hello all. I really appreciate the info from all of you. Thanks to Jim Myers and the others I missed that gave me the pin-outs on this IC. Missing the -13v led me to a lifted solder pad. When replacing D409 the heat from the iron lifted the trace, even using solder wick. I thought I repaired it, but didn't see the smaller trace leading to it from the -13.5v line-off the cap. This was one of those cases where taking a break and starting out fresh really helped. Special thanks to those of you who racked your brain to help me out.
