-        the number of bands is more restricted on the horns than antenna?? +          polarization rotation with sinuous antenna. This may become an issue.  It is worse with broader bandwidth. 
-        * different edge tapersis it acceptable? is it a bad idea? +          * different edge tapers over 3 bands. is it acceptable? is it a bad idea? 
-        * Shaul: none of sound like tech risks, they are systematic risks; there are experiments in near future; we are not seeing developing tech is risky+          * Experiments are fielding these pixels and both will be tested.  We should know by early 2020'
 +          * In both cases could go down to 2 band pixels.  This allows other tech such as horn coupled.

         * Shaul: agree; also points out that it will not be that we won’t have, it will be like we have those detectors, but systematics exceeds; if you have sensitivity, you can clean systematics. There are systematics, we will numerate these, and; these words should be in systematics         * Shaul: agree; also points out that it will not be that we won’t have, it will be like we have those detectors, but systematics exceeds; if you have sensitivity, you can clean systematics.

 +   * Amy: what to save money: shrinking the operation, scaling down requires less mechanical reduces cost; 
 +   * one thing that’s is simple would be to slow the spin speed, it would reduce the requirement on motor, makes it easier to point reconstruction, data transfer and data on board. EPIC half rpm?
 +   * Kris: what is the range to reduce?
 +   * Amy: now 1rpm, if half rpm, don’t know how much can save
 +   * Shaul: from science point of view, the impact is on noise, more 1/f, not easy to quantify; that is something has to be assessed by simulation
 +   * Shaul: all of the small scale science should be fine, the only science affected could be largest angular scale and B modes; we can simply say "the effect on the largest angular scale will be accessed".
 +   * Amy: for baseline, it was 950 M, under 1B cap. Last decade, EPIC review increased 20-30%; showing some descopes is safer
