peter	Re: tiny triple bypass question Thanks Aron for clearing that up, I suspected it should be that way, so my wiring is correct. Sleeves are connected together and to ground and input ring is connected to +9v (this is a PNP circiut). Now what I don't understand is that the millenium and triple bypass have one end going to ground, and the other to +9v...but when I plug my jack in, +9v IS connected to ground. Could it be that these circuits are designed for negative to ground circuits such as the rat was and that I need to turn things around on my bypass board such as the facing of the diodes and led and transistors ? Or are these circuits suitable for both positive to ground AND negative to ground. It is slowly starting to get clear to me, so tell me if I'm saying stupid things. Peter.
