Conclusions:

revised radio continuum spectra

  • reveal broken power-laws of synchrotron spectra
  • indicate low containment of comic rays in dwarf

galaxies

  • exhibit low  SNR (must be checked with LOFAR!)
  • cut-off energies 1.5 - 7 GeV

more such work worthwhile: Effelsberg SRT!!! Greenbank
