Summary
• Redistribution shelf in qualitative agreement with Seyfert 2
soft X-ray scattering model.
• Off-axis broad band X-cal between PN and MOS in agreement
with On-axis results, except for soft band in MOS1
RMF Effect ?
• On-axis MOS1 patch still expanding
• On-axis MOS2 patch looks to be stable
