The overall efficiency (including atmospheric transmission, reflectivity of the telescope mirrors and overall efficiency of the optics and of the detector) for broad-band imaging should be about 25% in H and K, and about 15% in J. The main noise source for both broad- and narrow-band imaging should be the photon noise associated to the background+source flux. ... Flat fielding (and possibly background subtraction) might increase the noise by a factor 2 ? ...

... The BL Lac objects found within DXRBS fall mostly in the range . ... A large fraction of the BL Lacs so far in our sample are at L X / L R < 10 -6.5 , the region of Figure 6 populated by LBLs. In this region of parameter space (to the left of the left-most dashed line in Figure 6), DXRBS includes objects up to two orders of magnitude fainter than the 1 Jy survey. ... For comparison, we have plotted the values for members of these three ROSAT-based surveys (DXRBS, HQS/RASS and RC) in Figure 7. ...
