Just checking in see if any further steps to trouble shoot this one..

In relooking at these values this morning VR5 does change the voltage the top end is what I stated with a slight saw wave pattern at 0.35v the counter clock wise position will bring the voltage down to -9v. This is with the MG Freq set to 10. When Freq is set to 0 VR5 does not appear to have that much of an effect on voltage.
