To be more specific, the problem in the linac is with the Budzar Cooler
(the device which regulates the oil temperature) for Transmitter 6. Rich
Campbell and Rich Capidolupo have been here all night working to get it
back up. Initially, they were going to replace an internal pump, but
apparently a spare device had to be swapped in. They are still
working and need at least a few more hours, as there is some processing
time once the new Budzar is wired in.
