	Source
LinCoord	NGC2516	Checked also for telescope ageing
		and other trends
XPSF	LMC X-3	For PN, but produces pile-up in
	PKS0312-770	MOS, so we use 2 sources
PSFPileUp	LMC X-3	Checked with various source
	PG1634
ADUConv	N132D	Internal source has few lines
	Internal
CTI	1ES0102-72	Via. multiple pointings
	N132D
QuantumEf	Terzan 2	Various power law spectra observed
	G21.5-09	in other observatories. Check for features
	3C58	attributable to CCD efficiency discrepancies

and	G21.5-09	general effective area calibration
Redist	3C58
	HZ43	Additional sources for limited
	Cal83	energy regions in
	Cal87	soft band
