The entire setup indeed looks like a cobbled-together TV-radio combo, with the aforementioned power supply just left in the bottom of the cabinet for no particular reason.

Another possibility: There *is* a similar sized Jones multipin plug on the radio chassis connected to a drooping wire... perhaps the other end of the wire should be plugged into the bottom chassis? I don't see an obvious AC power cord attached to the radio chassis. The AC outlet on the bottom chassis would seem to be in a good location for supplying power to the TV...note the TV cord unplugged, just a few inches away. My guess is that the bottom chassis *is* a part of the combo, but has been unplugged (perhaps for testing?) and is now "loose" in the bottom of the set. Just a WAG, however.
