frustrations. Many also mentioned that I should...

These things would be ideal for probe tuning but I would like to do other
things as well. Agilent (HP) makes some 1 GHz, 2 GHz, 3 GHz, and 4 GHz
sweepers. I need only the 1 GHz but we are negotiating an attractive price
on a 2 gig refurb.
Who knows? Maybe SIU will buy an 1800 MHz NMR spectrometer some day. ;-)
Oh, and thanks to Roger Kautz and Bob Santini (and one more, on computer at
home) for educating me about impedance.
