Hi, In the help for spectrum it says: " If available, a confidence interval will be plotted by 'plot.spec': this is asymmetric, and the width of the centre mark indicates the equivalent bandwidth. " What you get is a blue bar on the right side of the plot. I can understand the width of the centre mark. But how does one make use of or interpret the bar itself? What I would like to do is draw confidence curves on either side of the periodogram. Is this possible or reasonable? Bill
