14. The equivalent measurement by sweeping the applied field is not possible here since the presence of frozen vortices makes the internal field insensitive to a change of applied field [9].

24. Measurements below T = 15 K are not reported as the accuracy is reduced by the large broadening of the NMR line together with the overlap with a sharp line corresponding to Li near a chain site.

After electronic diffusion of our preprint, we have been directed towards recent independent propositions that the tunneling through the BiO layer could give in STM an erroneous image of the spatial distribution of the DOS.
