flux convert from Jy to erg/s/A

The mks units of flux density, W m2 Hz1, are much too big for practical astronomical use, so we define smaller ones: 

1 Jansky=1 Jy1026 W m2 Hz11023 erg s1 cm2 Hz1

and 1 milliJanksy = 1 mJy 103 Jy, 1 microJansky = 1  Jy 106 Jy. 



PS:
1 erg s1 cm2 Hz1 =  1 dv/dl  erg s1 cm2 lambda= c/lambda**2   erg s1 cm2 lambda1

1 Jy = 3E-5 erg s1 cm2 lambda1   /(X)**2
        ~ 1.2 E-(23-11)  erg s1 cm2 lambda1   at  5000A
