Abstract
Cylindrical pressurized drift tubes with different anode wire diameters wer e operated in a 170 GeV muon test beam. The dependences of spatial resoluti on, efficiency and streamer probability on the anode wire diameter were mea sured. The resolution measurements are compared with a simulation.
