Chamber connection methods and apparatus are provided. In some embodiments, a signal wire is attached to a drift chamber by feeding a signal wire through an end of the drift chamber; feeding the signal wire through the dielectric tube; extending the dielectric tube outwardly from the drift chamber end; and at a location on the outside of the drift chamber end, setting the extending dielectric tube and signal wire together to thereby fit the signal wire to the drift chamber end and gas seal the dielectric tube end. In some other embodiments, the drift chamber is a muon drift tube. In some embodiments, drift tube end cap assemblies with and without gas ports are provided for attaching the signal wire to the drift tube.
