+     Previous two weeks (Apr 15 - Apr 26)
-      - Attended an ARIES sponsored workshop on scintillating screens, cameras & optics.
-      - Working on getting power setup for Magnetron Project. This will be done in Lab 1 of the LERF. Within the next
-        few weeks the first of two transmitters will arrive and be installed in the LERF.
-      - Mounted a BNNT Halo monitor screen for the Isotope beam line run the LERF, also worked to get beam to 0G dump
-        and to the 1G dump. Initially the vacuum system was not ready then we were all ready & the drive laser would not stay
-        locked. There were a number of items on HCO that were signed off but not operational. We will try to run to the 1G
-        dump in ~6 weeks when we are back at 2K.
-      - Working with Joe & Mike to get the first SLM installed in Arc 7 during the SAD. I also mounted a BNNT flag as a part
-        of this installation.
-      - Attending a meeting at ODU about hope to better work together on common projects with the school of engineering.
-      - Finishing up some IBIC program details for this fall’s conference.
-      - Spent some time on the IPM gun pulser design for the 300 kV experiment.

-       - Finished and implemented the new optical layout of ARC 7 SLM. We now have a filter wheel in front of the first optic
+       -
-        as Mike T. asked for the second filter wheel is 90mm upstream of the third filter wheel which is located at the field

-        stop. The first wheel will contain the slits. I am waiting on input from Mike T. on the width and offset of the five
+       -
-        different slits that will be installed here. The second wheel will contain bandpass filters for short and long visible
-        wavelengths along with a vertical and a horizontal polarizer. The last wheel contains neutral density filters. Met
-        with Steve S. and Keith C. at the installation location. Steve said he will approve the installation but hasn’t yet
-        updated the Atlis.
-      - Spent time working on the Beamenizer after we found the system not working when running to the 0G dump. I created a
-        test fixture and
-        after a timing board repair I was able to verify the system now works.
-    Next two weeks (Apr 15 - Apr 25)
