Fixing cross-talk problems by terminating anodes in Muon Tracker – Important especially for W measurements in muon arms (LANL, RIKEN, Korea U.) New capacitors that connect anodes to terminators Manlift work on station-1 to put termination on Terminators designed and installed in tight spaces LANL - M. Leitch
