Here is a 125 MHz proton spectrum of undiluted 94 proof bourbon. My role at is and engineering, not , so when I make spectra they are usually of things I find lying around at home or at the hardware store. Besides the strong water and ethanol signals, you can see in the insets a broadened doublet at 0.80, a singlet at 1.97 and weak multiplets at 1.37 and 3.27. Can anyone help me identify those? I referenced the ethanol triplet to 1.10.

The tools we use are one of my favorite things about making spectrometers. Yesterday we received new Borite lathe tools with TT-321 carbide inserts. The inserts are supposed to have a 1/64” tip radius. That’s important, so we checked them on an optical comparator.

Here's a PTS-160 frequency synthesizer from my test equipment collection. PTS synths were supplied with spectrometers and are still commonly used in NMR labs. This one has seen heavy use in the Q Magnetics R&D lab where we developed the world's highest field benchtop NMR spectrometer. The ancient HP-5328A counter on top has not been checked against a standard for >20 years.
