Notes. For narrow-band sources, these give 10 per cent or less fractional excess power relative to the fiducial EoR model for |$k \lesssim 0.9\, h$| Mpc−1. For two-channel DTV sources, these give 1 per cent or less fractional excess power on modes considered in this work. All occupancies and flux densities are expressed per individual RFI source. The integration flux density refers to the flux density of a source in the final integrated spectrum, while the snapshot flux density reflects how bright the source was in its original snapshot. Note that for the final row, 100 incoherent copies of the source appear in the final integration.
