 LTspice Mixer Analysis:
  What I basically did was I took the basic differential amplifier design and tested
    the inputs with the two different designs: one with the data coming in through the
    top transistor, and one where the data comes in through the bottom input. The pdf
    diagramming the setups are displayed below.
