There are many approaches to simultaneous multi-nuclear spectroscopy, but the simplest and potentially the most elegant involves sending all frequencies through a single broadband amplifier into a single-port, multi-tuned coil. This abstract examines a complication in this approach, that of early saturation of the amplifier due to the need to amplify two signals simultaneously. A simple solution, staggering the RF pulses a small amount to avoid the overlapping of their peaks, is shown to largely avoid the problem.
