The data obtained during the N2R67 tests (i.e. calibration scans & beam maps on Uranus, Neptune, Mars, Mercury and the secondary flux standards NGC7027, MWC349, CRL618, CRL2688) after recoating M1 were reprocessed with PIIC-QL and the DAFs version in force for the dates indicated above. Likewise, we have reprocessed the same kind of maps of the cited sources, observed during the runs N2R66 (2024/03/5-19; Winter 23; after servo-control upgrading and before painting works) and N2R63 (2023/01/10-31; Winter 22; it was the last NIKA2 pool week before servo-control upgrading) to make some comparisons. | The data obtained during the '''N2R67''' tests (i.e. calibration scans & beam maps on Uranus, Neptune, Mars, and Mercury, as well as the secondary flux standards NGC7027, MWC349, CRL618, and CRL2688) after recoating M1 were reprocessed with PIIC-QL and the DAFs version in force for the dates indicated above.
