Curtis,

WOW! That's a lot of exclamations - glad they are not expletives.

Look at the results you just placed on your wiki, look at the scope 
signals, look at amplitude spectra. What else do you need to be 
convinced of the fact that the gains are as expected? There is even a 
statement confirming that fact that was just placed on the wiki .You can 
verify the ASIC performance using the test setup described in 1364 if 
you so desire. I stand by my results!

I completely agree that you need to understand the behavior of the CDC 
and you will need more time for that - no question about that. 
Certainly, I won't start procurements until the CDC and the FDC groups 
understand the performance of the detectors with the ASIC.

I just need an estimate of the completion date. Is this much to ask, I ask?

Best regards,
Fernando
