Abstract
We highlight some problems encountered and lessons learned in obtainin g stable operation of the SLD GRID for the past four years. During the 1994-95 run of the SLC, we achieved stable operation of liquid (C6F14 ) and gas (85% C5F12/15% N-2) radiators with good UV transparency, and we regularly operate the TPCs with excellent drift lifetimes and good single photo-electron detection efficiency.
