[1000mp] New to the list and INRAD question

[Pete Smith]

Once you get the case off, it is a 5-minute job, 10 if you are working on a Mark 5 and have to install the power connections first.  In my case, I already had the power wiring in place from the IF mod, so it was a matter of plugging in two small coax lines and the two power leads, and that was that.
