SiC#26 was removed from target module #4 this morning. Target shows the now standard arc marks on the 9 pin connector housing...pictures to follow.

Of greater concern is the amount of "plating out" or "arc" marks on both the insulators and connductor of the TM4 source tray. I will again warn that the source trays historically have a life expectancy, and that TM4 continues to show visual signs that the current source tray is rapidly approaching the end of its useful life!

I understand that one of this years goals is to retrofit TM3; however I fear TM4(and possibly TM1) may fail before this can be released. With the current absence of backup source trays and modules I fear we leave the ISAC program in a very vulnerable position.
