Sampling in window 1 is a little odd - the distribution is incredibly narrow, if 
you can even call it a distribution at all.  Make sure everything is OK in that 
window.  In the absence of a well-defined minimum, you're not going to get a 
sensible profile.  People's mileage varies as far as recapitulating that PMF 
curve, but I have received confirmation from at least two other people that the 
PMF can be reproduced following the method in the paper.
