Sorry I dont understand given the wonderful chat on light. Is a change in frequency the same as a change in wave length.. I am thinking that a cahnge in frequency must change the wave lenght.
Thank you

Alex,
What you are saying is true but the calculations involves the fractional change in frequency. This relates to time by the very simple formula.
(delta v)/v = t.
delta v is the change of frequency in the gravitational field.
v is the unchanged frequency.
t= time dilation.
