    keyword=scaler checks

    For the run Kalyan analyzed he said that T6++ and T2-+ disagreed
    between Left and bigbite. Here I check T6 using the scalers in Podd
    and find that indeed these two banks (Left, BB) track well but
    for the T6++ combination the Left counts more by a constant ratio
    of 1.41 which happens to be sqrt(2), probably a coincidence.

    Making the signals wider was a good idea. The scalers have a limited
    bandwidth and I know, for example, 10 nsec is a disaster, while
    100 nsec is fine, so somewhere in between. At this point the problem
    might be individual weaknesses of channels, something I've never
    seen before, but bumping up the width (just to see what happens)
    may be a good thing to try.

    BTW, you can see the target flipping pretty nicely (fig 2)
