# Columns are:  
#  (1) name of filter and/or band
#  (2) wavelength (micron)
#  (3) limiting continuum flux density (Jy), per spectral resoln element, that can be detected in a point source at SNR=10 in 10^4 s.
#   (4) Not used
#  (5) Resolution R, where R= lambda / (delta lambda)
#  (6) Code for instrument/observatory.

#HST:
# WFC grism ETC, used flat continuum in fnu (the def. of AB mags), normalized to fnu at given wavelength for WFC;
#    normalized to SDSS/R in AB magnitudes for ACS ETC since that's the only relevant option.
