After heavy-handed propaganda by RG that "no tracking LO" was the way to go, he eats crow and opts for having a tracking LO after all. Reasons are several; most important is the realization that aligning spectra a posteriori will require interpolation, uneven frequency corrections on high and lo ends of the spectrum, etc. Also because he is too lazy to write all the software to carry out the alignments and keeping track of all the mess that results on integer masks. From today, it's central vel=7663 withrestf=1420.4058, optical convention, Doppler tracking LO.
