Hi Sameer,

It may be 60 Hz ripple, or multiples thereof, from one of the power supplies.

Best regards,

Dear AMMRL,

Our 500 MHz Bruker Avance II spectrometer has developed an issue: an oscillating
wave superimposed on the WOBB tuning curve. The wave has a frequency of roughly
150-160 kHz and appears for both 13C and 1H tuning.

The oscillating wave remains when I disconnect the RF cables between the HPPR and
probe, and the RF cables between the HPPR and amplifiers, and if I swap SGUs
(2 with 4, 1 with 3).

The wave is present but stops oscillating if I disconnect one or both of the TUNE-IN
or RF-OUT cables at the back of the HPPR. Same behaviour if I disconnect one or both
of the RF_IN or LO_IN cables on the RXAD-600 board.

I’d be grateful for any advice/suggestions!

Thanks,

Sameer
