 **Spectra in Class are always in units of Tcal!** To obtain Kelvins or Jy/Beam you have to multiply with the temperature of the noise diode (Tcal) and appropriate antenna sensitivities/​efficiencies. Approximate values for this can be found on our receiver website [[http://​www3.mpifr-bonn.mpg.de/​div/​effelsberg/​receivers/​receiver.html|receiver website]]. However, it is highly recommended to do calibration measurements during your observation for better accuracy. Furthermore,​ the automatic Class pipeline does not account for atmospheric opacity, elevation-gain curve, and antenna efficiency. Information about these steps can be found in Kraus 2009 (calibration memo). **Spectra in Class are always in units of Tcal!** To obtain Kelvins or Jy/Beam you have to multiply with the temperature of the noise diode (Tcal) and appropriate antenna sensitivities/​efficiencies.
