Hi kay, We have been able to achieve a precision of 1.5mm - 2mm (depending on how you define the boundary of the glow) with the IN-13 tube and after taking several measures: binning, cathodic sputtering and dual-region transfer function compensation. The length of the main cathode is 120mm so that's better than 0.02%. We have found several tubes in say a lot of 100 are 'gassy' and notably change characteristics even within a week. We still need to try baking them. Regards, Alex
