... A value can be given for every channel. ... Note that BBC assignments are arbitrary for the RDBE and the old VLBA systems since all BBCs can see all input IFs. However, for Mark III and Mark IV systems and the current version of the DBBC, there are strong constraints. For Mark III/IV ``astronomical patching'', which is the only one currently properly understood, the odd BBCs must be connected to IF1 (IFCHAN 1N or 1A where 1N is normally LCP and 1A is normally RCP). ...

We describe the absolute calibration of the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) 160 ЮМm channel. After the on-orbit discovery of a near-IR ghost image that dominates the signal for sources hotter than about 2000 K, we adopted a strategy utilizing asteroids to transfer the absolute calibrations of the MIPS 24 and 70 ЮМm channels to the 160 ЮМm channel. ... The calibration factor we derive is 41.7 MJy sr-1 MIPS160-1 (MIPS160 being the instrumental units). ...

... The very demanding goal of 50 milliarcseconds root-mean-square (mas RMS) for the astrometric precision of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey implies that focus and collimation motions of the secondary must be very smooth.

... The GIMP currently (version 0.54) supports images with only 8 bits per channel. A channel can be thought of as one of the base colors of Red, Green and Blue (thats an over simplification, but we'll go with that for now) in RGB images or the range of intensities that White will range through in grayscale images. ... With 8 bits to work with, every pixel in a GIMP image occupies at least one byte (or more precisely, one octet) of memory. ... Values in the range of 0 to 255 are possible using 8 bits. ...
