I searched the forum, but still couldn't quite figure this one out.  I opted for a 2n5088 instead of the 2n3565, and the transistor is obviously shaped differently.  To anyone who has used these, when looking at the top (component side) of the board, will the flat side face the left or right of the board?

Got it figured out.  Turns out that schematics and data sheets are my friends.  :)
