Abstract

A visit was made to Las Campanas in the wake of a major lightning strike. Our step­ down transformer was replaced and everything to carne back to life. Some problems with the clutch mechanism surfaced, but were dealt with. A new water-cooling system that included a 44-gallon oil drum was installed. And finally, some changes were made to the temperature controllers.
