Re: Cable



Hall D Electronics:

Hi Fernando,

I just tested the new cable and ... I still see the same dead channels (4 
now). To be absolutely sure I hooked up the old CLAS preAMP again and I 
see signals in all channels. It is not the shaper, not the cable, and all 
the signals come off the HV board. So one item remains ==> the 
pre-amplifier+interposer. Is it possible to send one (if there is one 
available) to CMU so I could try it?

Which cable would you like to have back: the old one or the one you just 
sent me?

Cheers and thanks,
 	Yves
