assembled partly on the main chassis which is spot
welded to the case at approximately one third
of its height and partly on another small chassis.

and lock-nuts to the sides of the case; the rear of
the chassis is fixed by two captive screws to two
'pillars supported on the main chassis. This con-
struction allows the small chassis to pivot on the
side screws for ease of servicing when the two
captive fixing screws are released. The two preset
controls METER GAIN and METER BALANCE are fitted
on the small chassis and are arranged so that they
can be adjusted when the top cover is removed.

assembly carries two Mk. 4 sockets and one Mk. 4
plug for interconnection to other items of the
homing equipment. T h i s panel is secured to the
assembly by four screws and lock-nuts and it is
not normally detached from it.
