Abstract
Fast IR wavefront aberration sensors are essential to the improved performance of HEL systems. However, sensor designs which function well (in principle and in practice) for the incoherent blackbody realm must not be transferred over into the coherent environment without first considering possible interference problems. A case history of one such sensor which failed this precept is considered.
