All fine except for the outstanding question of why you need calibscale?

Whilst we do 'allow' for any attribute to result in a change in any other,
it is nice to avoid it if possible (and it is kind of assumed
that changes to calibscale and caliboffset are for tweaking miss
calibrate hardware, not gross changes like this), hence just have
echo 0.000012195 > in_magn_scale
rather than the
1.9 to > in_magn_calibscale
