- Dave: The the first package was assembled completely on Friday. Due to delays with the gas bottles (again GTS company!), we started flushing with Nitrogen. Will have the bottles by the end of the next week hopefully. Anatoly is working on the cathodes for package #4. All but one are ready. Wire frame #29 will be deadened on Monday. Need Casey and Mike for several hours to string wire frame #30. These frames are needed for package #4 as well. PO for the foils was issued yesterday, expect them Nov 15, then Anatoly will start testing them. We need the foils for package #2 sometime in December.

- Dave deadened wire plane #29. Casey and Tina may come this Saturday to string wire plane #30. Will have the gas on Monday, hopefully by the end of the week will start testing the first package. Anatoly is refurbishing the cathodes for package #2. He removed the foil on four cathodes and started the fifth. We decided to stop with the refurbishment, before we are sure we have the foils. The foils are supposed to be end of November. Bill: do we need first article to check if there are problems. Since this is the same company (Allflex) they now how to do them and what do we need. We didn't have problems with the foils before, Anatoly tested all of them strip by strip. Initially there was some discoloration
  
 
- Vlad started applying HV on the new cells: could not reach more than ~1800V on two of the new cells. We suspect that the limitation comes from the gas, Nitrogen. We will try the same on a cell that worked before.
