GE Maxitron X-Ray Units

[Mark=Linsley%occsafe%sep@sep2.sep.bnl.gov]

The Medical Department of Brookhaven National Laboratory is seeking 
information and parts for a General Electric Maxitron 250 X-ray unit.
The unit which had operated for years, mostly with the help of rubber bands 
and bubble gum, is now pushing up daisies.

Specifically, we are looking for a new tube, or info on having one 
reconditioned ( ? ). The last tube in it imploded (The cylindrical tube is 
now an elliptical tube !!! BOOM, SIZZLE, SMOKE). We have one other tube, but 
have been told that it might be to gassy to use now. This is the tube they 
would like to get reconditioned.

BNL has two units, a 250 and a 300, neither one of which are currentl 
operating. Any info and/or parts for either would be helpful.

I believe about two months ago the RSO from Dartmouth was looking for 
information. We would very much like to get in touch with you if you are 
still in the market.

Thank you again for your help.
