- Dave: Working now on the last cathode for cell#6. Another two cathodes are needed (type 1 and 2) to finish the cathodes for the first production package. There was a problem with the cutter; the springs will be replaced. The wire plane #5 is ready, yesterday we did the deadening. The stringing stopped because of problems with the HV caps on the next wire frame #6.

- Beginning with the wire frame #5, we started testing the HV caps before stringing. It requires some conditioning but few days were enough to test wire frame #5. Now we are having problems with wire frame #6. We identified so far 8 caps that need to be replaced. After the meeting we continued with the tests and we found another 4, so 12 in total. Anatoly, who removed the caps, mentioned that on 5 of these there were solder balls below the caps somewhere between the pads (see pictures linked above). The balls are actually flat (like a coin).
