Empirical throughputs

Throughputs have now been measured on-sky for all current ING common-user instruments except WHT TAURUS (Fabry-Perot mode), JKT Richardson-Brealey spectrograph and WHT LDSS imaging. WYFFOS and WHIRCAM are not fully commissioned at the time of writing; only theoretical estimates of throughput are available. Most of the measurements reported below were made in 1994.
