FXD: final version before run, SL: update sources list files with few more entries, and correct some coordinates (Oct 18, Oct 19)

1. Planets
Mars, Venus (too big, 57 arcsec), Uranus, Neptune for photometric calibration (primary calibrators)

||Name|| Right Ascention || Declination || Size (arcsecond diameter) || Flux @ 1.25 mm || Flux @ 2.05 mm ||
||MARS||<)> 15:22:07.4042 ||<)> -18:57:44.888 ||<)> 4.06 * 4.04 ||<)> 106.6 Jy ||<)> 40.09 Jy ||
||URANUS ||<)> 23:52:22.9081 ||<)> -01:40:36.585 ||<)> 3.65 * 3.64 ||<)> 54.76 Jy ||<)> 20.71 Jy ||

2. Usual bright quasars 
 for image quality and linearity checks

3. List of bright ultracompact HII regions 
 for photometric calibration checks (secondary calibrators)

4. Extended emission from
  *Herschel new sources
  *Archeops bright cores
  *bright galaxies M87 (again), M82, others
  *less bright NGC1068 22mJy at 1.3mm rising to 36 at 3mm
 --> Need fast speed scanning to reduce 1/f residual noise

5. Faint quasars  in the 10 mJy range at 1mm (use Omont&Cox list [[attachment:pcox_IiAHPe_dec03_p5.pdf]]): 
 test detectability in faint source mode: e.g.
 * J075618.14+410408.6 z= 5.09 20.15   1.3 mm 5.5 ± 0.5 Wang et al 2008, ApJ, 135, 1201
 * J092721.82+200123.7 z= 5.77 19.87g 1.3 mm 5.0 ± 0.8 mJy   3.5 mm: 0.12 ± 0.03 mJy
 * IRAS F10214+4724 = SDSS J102434.56+470909.5  1.3mm: 10 mJy
 * H1413+517 14h15m46.240s +11d29m43.40s z=2.558 1.3mm 18+-2 mJy

6 Cluster of galaxies: RXJ1347-1145 (maybe too close to the sun), A665, A2163 and CL0016+16
 If sensitivity allows demonstrate the ability to map clusters (one of the main scientific goals of this camera).
