I have updated the number for preshower  at high and low radiation area 
of PVDIS here
https://hallaweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Solid_calorimeter_readout#preshower
The difference is not very large because the low energy gamma going a 
wide spread directions.

We will need to group the modules cleverly..
I see basically two ways
1. group modules from inner to outer radius into one MaPMT.
This way we can use one gain and have inner module output higher current 
and outer output lower current, as far as we keep overall current below 
10uA limit.
The gain required can be estimated by the average current, which is 5e3 
for PVDIS high or low area.
The complication is that different channels on one MaPMT will want 
different amplification. It's about 10-20 times difference from inner to 
outer radius
2. group modules from the same radius into one MaPMT.
This way module output similar current and we can keep similar 
amplification for one MaPMT.
The complication is that the most inner module at PVDIS high rate area 
may need gain as low as 1e3

I don't see any ideal way yet, maybe we need to combine 1 or 2 somehow.

Is there any other idea?

Thanks

Zhiwen
