I think that it is a great idea. I would need a working DAQ
to make some efficiency measurement of the new eSC (rebuilt
ones). I am not sure to be able to measure something totally
meaningfull without a real DAQ. However, I am doing now some
light test for them (lack of it, if possible) and will do my
best to see the PM working fine. I believe we can wait for
late August beginning of September for the efficiency.

For detail travel time, I would imagine that Peter would be
happy to know about it and we should see with him what is
the best.

best regards
Francoise
