I think what was strange to me was that the frequency never seems to
change, there isn't just a delay in the new frequency taking effect, as
I would expect in these cases. Or if there is a delay, that's quite large
- at least a second.

I gave this a try an it does work for me.

I'll give this a try as well when there is consensus. I might even try to
review it, if the time allows.
Many thanks,
