Following Cowly's (1983) exploration of the NBS Monograph 145 intensity measurements' calibration, an investigation is undertaken of the problem posed by the single temperature for the copper arc light sources. The null hypothesis of a single temperature is contradicted by statistical arguments, and although evidence is found for a mild correction to the intensity scale, no indication is found for a drift of intensities with wavelength. The derivation of useful gf-values from Monograph 145 intensities for any spectrum in which there are enough accurate measurements for a calibration is further supported by the present findings. Such calibrations must be made individually for each spectrum, and predictions should not be extrapolated beyond calibration domains.
