    Hi,
    thanks, Martin and James, I see now the flaw related to the symmetry
    and implicit periodicity and now got a spectrum with a negligible
    imaginary part. However, the real part is still different from the
    analytic solution in that it changes sign some times; it is still only
    the absolute value which reproduces the analytic solution (except for
    the scaling factor, of course).
    Here are the first 4 samples:
    Re(F),num |F,num| Re(F),an
    2.169456 2.169456 1.981664
    -1.369174 1.369174 1.247095
    0.3386716 0.3386716 0.3108198
    -3.5211481E-02 3.5211481E-02 3.0680126E-02

    It's probably trivial, but I don't get what is going on here. Any
    further ideas?
    Tom
