To resolve a general misconseption. Yes, it is true that 60 cm vertex
goes from +/- 30 cm and in fact we see that. However, we CANNOT use
extra 20 cm at the edges due to a target field change of sign. So we
still work with a target of +/- 20 cm. The only gain is due to a
conductace change which is linear with the length and thus should go up
by a factor of 60/40=3/2 which is what, I think, we see. I would like
elastic people :-) verify what I see.

                                                                         
    Cheers, Vitaliy
