Thanks to both Daves for the info and advice. Dave Bishop's description 
certainly made sense, but sure wasn't what I had originally imagined.  I 
managed to find a picture that matches what he described, I think.

Is that it? The brackets on my 1122 would seem to mount it with the 
input/output connectors facing down, rather than up as in this picture. 
But maybe they got swapped around when the unit was removed and prepared 
for shipping.  Thanks again.

Regards,
Mike
