A new buncher cavity (called the pre-buncher b/c there it precedes the main 1497 MHz bunching cavity) built from copper (rather than existing stainless steel) in order to best achieve the required bunching power.

Picked up cavity one today after its 4th trim at the machine shop. The frequency on the bench is now 1495.6 MHz with the tuning slug at 1.95" and 1496.4MHz with the slug at 1.74" At 1.74" the slug is flush at the cavity wall and at 0.7" the slug is fully inserted. Attached is a picture of the NA's S21 measurement. It is time to braze the end plates to the body. Should I deliver the parts to Scott or for cleaning?
Cheers, Mark
