... What work is currently being done to improve the flux calibration accuracy for echelle modes? ... Starting early in Cycle 11, monthly offsetting for echelle modes was turned off to minimize these types of calibration problems. ... We are currently working on redetermining the echelle flux calibration so that it is self-consistent with the 2-D scattered light algorithm. Time dependence of the sensitivity - Sensitivity-monitor data for the echelle modes are currently under investigation. ...
