<P>
We next will show how to do a basemap for a log-log plot.  We will
assume that the raw <I>x</I> data range from 3 to 9613 and <I>y</I>
ranges from <!-- MATH
 $3.2 \cdot 10^{20}$
 -->
<IMG
 WIDTH="62" HEIGHT="35" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img30.gif"
 ALT="$3.2 \cdot 10^{20}$"> to <!-- MATH
 $6.8 \cdot 10^{24}$
 -->
<IMG
 WIDTH="62" HEIGHT="35" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img31.gif"
 ALT="$6.8 \cdot 10^{24}$">.  One possibility is

<P>

psbasemap -R1/10000/1e20/1e25 -JX9il/6il \
   -B2:"Wavelength (m)":/a1pf3:"Power (W)":WS &gt;! plot.ps
</PRE>

<P>
(The backslash <IMG
 WIDTH="12" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
 SRC="img32.gif"
 ALT="$\backslash$"> makes <I>UNIX</I> ignore the carriage return that follows and treat the two lines as one long command).
