For the past two years the linac has had reliable operation from the new RFQ preinjector. The performance of this preinjector is described. There is a fast beam chopper in the transport line between the ion source and RFQ. By injecting narrow pulses into the AGS we can obtain an accurate linac energy measurement, or the detailed shape of the linac beam energy distribution, on a single pulse. Some general comment on the linac operation are also presented.
