Dear Phil,

You are quite correct with xwin2.6 this is the case but with Xwin3.5
and TOPSPIN this is done automatically with the CF.
Nice to hear from you and hope you are fairing well in the States.

Best wishes,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

Is it also necessary to do 'cfbsms' to calculate the new digital lock
frequency after storing the new operating frequency with 'cf'? I have
a drifting 500 for which I update the frequency about once a year,
and I always do this. That is with XwinNMR 2.6.

Hope you're all doing well in Coventry,

Regards,

Phil.
