So what is it about periodic boundary conditions that can made an 
all-electron basis set fail for nmr with GAPW? The parameters discussed in 
the forum for GAPW do not seem specific for periodic boundary conditions. 
If this is a convergence issue rather than a bug, I would appreciate any 
guidance on what I should tune. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Ron
