UPDATE ! AV301 : TOPSHIM SHOULD WORK WITH WEAK SOLVENTS NOW
Dear Users
Thanks to a generous donation of a crucial component from a fellow public University like ours, I could revive the ability for this instrument to do meaningful Topshim based shimming on weak solvents like CDCl3.
The results based on the tests I ran on a few samples at my disposal and a few user samples look pretty encouraging. I will attempt to run more of these tests, but as of now, AV301 is the one that is capable of giving you optimal shimming results using Topshim.
I will see if a similar remedy can be applied to AV300, which suffers from the same malady. I am on the lookout for electronic components currently.
