Usage of narrow bore probes in widebore magnets

Hello,

we have here a less used solid state NMR spectrometer from Bruker
equipped with SGU frequency units. Base frequency is 500 MHz.

Because of the unique behaviour of the SGU units we would be happy
to use this spectrometer for pulse sequence development in the
field of liquid NMR.

As usual, the limiting factor is the money.
In principal it should be possible to use an older narrow bore
600 MHz probe for liquids. After changing some of the capacitors
within this probe, the probe should be suited for 500 MHz.
I have an offer from a specialized company to do
this work for an reasonable amount of money.
Furthermore there exist distance rings to place this probe into the
wide bore magnet.

In a last instance I only would need the lock system to get a fully
working liquid state NMR spectrometer.

That's the theory. Which hidden pitfalls might exist?

Thank you in advance for any comment.

Best regards

Rainer
