Changes

• 2004-Apr-22: The net rates are now calculated using the corrected PCU2 faint background models. See http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/xte/pca_news.html for more details.
• 2007-Sep-21: The net rates are corrected for problems with gaps in the SAA history file and problems in the background model. See the report PCA SAA History and Background Problems for more details.
