*I agree with Jane and all others . It helps to have a helper to remove
*and install the shim coils.To clean, I use alcohol wipes. Also put a
*little alcohol in the jets and blow clean air thru the channels.
*Indexing the shim housing with tape is a good idea also.
*On another note, I ruined the broadband channel on our 5mm inverse probe
*by not checking closely what solvent was really in the bottle. It was
*METHYLENE CHLORIDE!!! It glues everything together that was not metal.
*Cant trust the squirt bottles. Good thing I have an understanding
*chairperson. I still havent got it back from Bruker. Cant wait for the
*bill.
*By the way I called Siemens Xray service (Wisconsin) and they answered
*"BRUKER". How about that.
