Chris,

Any thoughts on how much the field would have to be shifted to explain
the data? I surveyed the field probe using the same techniques and
coordinate system as the wire chambers. I'd say we know the locations
of the field measurements to better than 2 mm in general, and better
than 1 mm in many places.
