Pork Barrel - Good dry, but no chorus

Fixed IT!!!! 

Was not a reflow problem.  When I put in the jumper for the IC I thought I had created a solder bridge between pin 5 and the jumper so I cleaned it up and scaped away excess solder between the two points.

While trouble shooting I noticed that the jumper had voltage and that pin 5 did not and wondered if I had broken a trace between the two while cleaning my solder bridge. 

So I created a connection between pin 5 and the jumper an TA DA !!!  Voltage on pins 5, 7 and 8.

Hooked it up an it works as expected.   Thanks to Scruffie and everyone for the help.

Thank Dutch.  Very nice souding chorus, lush and rich. Well worth the effort and lesson learned during the build.

I have zero help for you since I am going through my own issues with the pork barrel right now aswell but with the Tl062. All I can say is I feel your pain, I reflowed and replaced IC and transistors all evening. Still no luck, I hope you fair better.
