- Beni: the noise was studied with modified HVB in which the resistors, that reduce the signal by 1/2, were removed. As result, both the noise and the signals increased by factor of 2. Beni will try also with the FDC pre-amp.

- Beni installed a wide grounding braid connecting in a chain all HV boards in one sector (#4)
  
- Beni and Mike tried to improve the ground using: grounding braid connected to one HVB, Al foil covering the whole magnet opening. No improvements so far, but maybe one has to ground many more HVBs before you see any effect (Beni). More discussions about the noise: what is the resistivity of the CDC aluminum ring and was it anodized, what kind of grounding straps can be attached and how.
