A 12 sec long Main Ring cycle was used with an unbunched beam of low intensity to measure the change of the revolution frequency of the beam as a function of the central momentum setting determined by the magnetic field. The transition gamma was determined as the first order term in the change in the revolution frequency versus fractional change in the momentum, but the nonlinear term {alpha}{sub 1} could not be determined because of the limited momentum aperture of the Main Ring and the present measurement resolution.
