0100 Place tower (G101 detector and source holder attached) in N2 purge cabinet.

Modifications to Schuba Extender Plugs

1600 Use mill to shave 0.14” of copper off Schuba extender plug.
M2 screws connecting Schuba extender plug pins to copper piece are too long. Replaced with M2 x 6 mm flat head screws.
Due to reducing the thickness of the Schuba extender plug, the 0-80 x 1” screws are too long to fasten the side coax and plug to the tower. Replaced with shorter brass ones lying around the lab.

Tower Level Continuity Checks

2000 Tower level continuity check performed with Fluke 177 DMM.
DMM can measure maximum resistance of 50 MΩ (ie. 20 nS). Fluke 87 DMM will arrive tomorrow.
LED2 open at detector level. Not sure what happened.
