RF amplifier from Daresbury
First amplifier installed last week
Simplified TIARA configuration accepted by RF group - powering into one load reduces stress on deadline and uses fewer components and decouples from mods to mezzanine floor.
Waveguides and dummy load components received from UMISS last week
Prefabricated water panel arrives from DL end next week
Air system components are all here,
Installation can begin after EMR run #2
(i.e. next week)
