Hey,

I'm building a Splitter-Blender from runoffgroove.com (http://www.runoffgroove.com/splitter-blend.html) only i'm having some trouble figuring out which way round the transistor goes. The letters on the perf diagram at the bottom don't seem to correspond to anything I can find on the internet, and rather than fry my only 2N5457 I thought i'd check here.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Adam.

Googling 2N5457 gives the datasheet: http://www.fairchildsemi.com/ds/2N/2N5459.pdf

It clearly states the (D)rain, (S)ource, and (G)ate, just like on the layout on runoffgroove.
