The SED for the bandpass, flux, and polarization angle calibrator 3C286, the gain calibrator J1357+7643, and the leakage calibrator J1407+2827 for the total intensity (Stokes I, circles) and linearly polarized intensity (Stokes PL, pentagons). For the leakage calibrator, we show the 3σ upper limits on Stokes PL (triangles). For the polarization flux densities, we also overlay the direction of the polarization angle (with the angle measured from the horizontal axis).
