Thanks Corby.
Well didn't find the zeeman peaks but using a GPSDO it was very apparent
what the peaks are. Its now set and the real issue is that the base unit
was a option 004 now with a standard tube in it. Changing the C field
resistor moved it into the correct offset range. 300 ohms down to 235 ohms
for a standard tube per the manual.
I did swap the synthesizer module but I do not believe thats actually an
issue.
