In version 2 of the data reduction, we include frames where there is some visible scattered light, but where the background is still reasonably low (not more than a few times the minimum background). ... Briefly, the scattered light subtraction was done by registering the bright and dark images, subtracting the dark from the bright to remove the source, smoothing to remove any residual sources left over after the subtraction, and subtracting this smoothed sky image from the bright frame. ...

Such a model can reproduce much of the observed late-time evolution of the radio flux density and spectral index (though recent results for SNб 1993J (van Dyk et al. 1994) show that the Chevalier model does not adequately describe the early behaviour of radio light curves for this supernova, perhaps due to variations in the mass-loss rate and clumping in the stellar wind, which are not yet accounted for in the model). ...
