A brief overview of the rf system is given. Design and operating parameters for the klystron amplifiers powering the single cell cavities are described with operating parameters for various positron beam intensities and for optimization of the feedback loops. Klystron efficiencies are low except in saturated operation, but any feedback loop around the klystron requires at least some klystron gain. The gain in the amplitude feedback loop must be adjusted to compensate for saturation. The operating point of the klystron may be dynamically adjusted through a pre-programmed computer or dedicated local processor. Feed forward techniques may be used to alter the program based on beam intensity over the ten-hour storage cycle, using a new digitizer module from Hewlett-Packard. Reduction of the cavity impedance for multi-bunch operation is also described.
