-- Dave: wire plane #27 remains to be deadened, after tension measurements on #28 will be removed from the stringing table and will string the very last wire frame #8. Chris will put components on #28 next week. Cathode #53 (type-2) had a problem with gluing the ground plane: the Mylar pilled out from the frame. This is the first frame that was converted from type-1 to type-2 by filling the groove with epoxy, so most likely the surface that was epoxied and sanded was too smooth. Casey roughened it and a new foil was tensioned on it today; tomorrow we will know the result.

 - Third package was removed from the assembly fixture and put aside on a table. For that all the metal pins had to be removed, then the package was turned upside down to insert the new pins and hubs. We connected the package to the gas to check the tightness: it was as good as it before this operation.
