Jeff mock supplied 6 different types of filters to use with the high resolution mode of the mock spectrometer. ... Plots were made of the time domain voltage response as well as the frequency domain power response. A decimation of 10 was used for the filter decimation. this gave a filter length of 80 coeff.

We note that the F1042M filter has an anomalous PSF containing additional light in a broad halo component. ... Figure 5.11 compares the F1042M PSF with the more normal PSF seen slightly blueward in F953N. This scattering will impact photometry in the F1042M filter relative to other filters, since a greater fraction of the counts will lie outside the 1 arcsecond diameter aperture used herein for photometry on standard stars. ...
