Hmm. Okay.

A couple questions:
1) How are your soldering skills? (Don't take this question personally, it's a big board and a lot of work.) On my own board a drop of solder bridged a connection underneath an IC and it took me ages to figure out what was going on. So...did you do a good job on the build? Any photos?

2) Have you checked the continuity between the connectors that lead to the front panel? I've seen acid damage the wires in the connectors (ugly and a pain to fix) so be sure that you have good continuity to your front panel.

My apologies, guys. I completely misread the reply.

I switched the SK30A pins around. Still no change. I should mention that originally I had a 2N3819 installed but it didn't appear to make any difference for this issue. That's why I switched to an original and mistakenly installed it in reverse.

As a side issue, Cutoff doesn't work either but that's another matter.
