[AMMRL] upgrade to TS 2.1 pl6 --> TS 3.6.5 raw check no signal on gradient shimming

Well folks,

I've seemingly bricked out 2h gradient performance when attempting to upgrade
TS 2.1 to TS 3.6.5 (CentOS / AV III nano). In this case we are receiving a
topshim raw check - no signal at all

In a nutshell:
1. we are able to acquire a 1D 2H (zg2h)
2. we are able to topshim 1h
3. We are able to make a new shimmap
4. 1D 1H and 1D 13C both are OK
5. I can manually shim to lineshape spec

In this case, we installed and ran nmrrestore to bringing out tar file. Then
cf / ii / ii restart to clear any issues. Then checked prosol table and
edited with previous values accordingly.

At first we were not able to get a good shim response (shimming iterated many
times and set to poor values, complained of poor signal:noise, which in
retrospect may have been related a conversion from dB to dBm in prosol).
Still, we did not get a raw check no signal at all error.

We then though (perhaps unwisely) that there was an issue with the shimmap
and performed a 'topshim initial'.
--> at this point we were no longer able to get a 2H response in topshim.
1D 2H is OK, so is 1h gradient shimming.
--> seems like the routing is messed up

Routing is as follows:
1H --> SGU2 --> 60W amp
2H --> SGU1 --> 100W amp
5W amp is available, but unused.

I have no idea what to do; we reverted to the older computer running TS 2.1,
ran an nmrrestore and went through requisite cf's; all to no avail.

Any advice out there?

cheerios,
Darcy
