Pb-ion beams suer from strong beam degradation such as transverse emittance growth and losses on the long flat bottom of the SPS cycles used for LHC filling. A possible contribution to the losses could come from RF noise, espe- cially due to the frequency and amplitude modulation during each revolution period of the fixed frequency acceleration mode required for the acceleration of these beams. A ma- chine development session in 2016 was devoted to a direct comparison of a cycle with fixed harmonic number at flat bottom and a cycle with the usually used fixed frequency mode. The main results are reported here.
