An experimental station for an X-band Next Linear Collider hasbeenconstructedat SLAC. This stationconsists of a klystron and modulator,a low-loss waveguidesystem for rf power distribution, a SLED II pulse-compression and peak-powermultiplication system,accelerationsectionsand beam-line components(gun, pre-buncher,pre-accelerator, focussingelementsandspectrometer).An extensiveprogram of experiments to evaluate the performance of all componentsis underway.The stationis describedin detail in this paper,andresultsto datearepresented.
