SPS 800 MHz powerAll eight individual IOT transmitters validated

First line has been tested up to equivalent of 200 kW at the cavity input(4 x 60 kW + low pass filters losses + combiners losses + circulator losses + WG losses)

As soon as water will be back in the SPS, we will restart the cavities with their new controllers (debugging)

SPS 800 MHz powerVery bad news from Electrosys regarding circulator, the second one has even not been ordered (not informing us)

We will move the circulator to process the second cavity and operated the first one with fast reflected power measurements to protect the tubes

We are in the process of buying the missing circulators (will be long)
