It's been 20+ years since I mucked with a Mark 1 but as I recall it had the
power supply and RF components all on the same chassis. They improved that
a lot when they went to the Mark II, which had a separate power supply
chassis and cooling system. The Mark 1 I purchased back in the early 1970's
worked for all of a couple of weeks before the power transformer failed,
likely from too much heat.
