[AMMRL] Advice on X-nucleus decoupling during 1-D 1H acquisition?

Good afternoon All

Does anyone have any advice on how to choose an appropriate probe-safe
heteronuclear (X) decoupling power level and decoupling scheme for use
during 1-D proton experiments?

I don't mean X-decoupling during the short-duration AQ time in an n-D
experiment; I'm looking at multi-second X-decoupling during 1-D proton
experiments, where X is a low-band/low-gamma nucleus (e.g. 195Pt, 14N,
103Rh). Most of these X-nuclei have a single resonance so excitation
bandwidth is limited. I'm concerned about potentially excessive decoupling
power that may lead to sample heating and probe damage. The normal
spectrometer documentation doesn't seem to address this.

Thank-you,
Craig.
