Abstract :
A proportional chamber readout scheme has been developed which stores each-wire\´s data in a 40 MHz "shift register" while a decision to retain an event is made. System delay, resolving time and storage time are adjustable parameters and multiple hits on a wire, within the storage time, are retained.
