Dear Beni, Matt and Tim,

I guess we don't want to do this now, but shortet cables are definetely
better for the performance, this is also the reason why we moved to BCal
electronics to a new spot.

I guess the main issue with shortening the cables is the connectors, what
type of connectors are on the ends at the moment. Also does the
electronics side fit to the 205MHz FADC connectors?

cheers elke
