Well that's a good call. I've been out there working on it this evening and realized that Q4 was an NPN and I had replaced it with a PNP. That's on me. Stevem recommended nte128 and like an idiot I bought nte129. My old Q4 tested fine now that I have it out of the board so I put it back in and checked all of my measurements again.

Measurements that make me scratch my head are the collector of Q4. The schematic shows -3.7 at Q4s collector but I'm getting -33V. There is a node at that point between Q4 collector, C7 and R18. Should it be -33V on both sides of C7 or could it be a typo on the schematic?

The other one is CR4 where it goes into the collector of Q7. All of the other diodes have the same voltage on both sides but CR4 has -25V on one side and -256mV on the other side and that -256mV is going into the collector of Q7. Should it be like that?

I'll try the Q6 swap tomorrow evening.

Here are my measurements after putting Q4 back
