This work focuses on issues related to gradient disparities among cavities and how this can be addressed by adjusting the cavity coupling and its allocated power. The goal of this work is to show that if such a scheme does work for optimal beam conditions, it will result in a cavity quench when running in low beam or no beam conditions. Furthermore, we will show that lowering the operating gradient to prevent individual cavities from quenching does not work (i.e. the cavity will quench anyway).
