Test results and conditioning procedure of a limited streamer-tube calorimeter

Abstract The CHARM II Collaboration has built a massive, fine-grained calorimeter for the study of the elastic scattering short description of the detector will be followed by the presentation of some results obtained by exposing 40 of the 441 planes of the calorimeter to a beam of electrons and pions. Comments will be given about the conditioning procedure followed for the 154560 limited streamer tubes which compose the active part of the calorimeter.
