Do you have a picture of your board, i have the same issue. Exactly the same as you described. However, I 'think' my U2 is in the correct orientation. One thing I am unsure about, is the diode. The metal ends are a larger caliber than the holes that appear on the board, however, there are some wider holes more spaced apart that they fit in. I'm not sure where I am supposed to solder the diode, its a bit confusing and like others say, there are no images of a completed baord anywhere and no schematic.
