We observed the Cygnus Loop with Gas Scintillation Proportional Counter (GSPC) on board Tenma satellite. GSPC has an energy resolution two times better than that of a proportional counter (PC). Fig. 1 shows the spectrum with the crosses being the pulse height data with ± 1σ statistics. Superposed upon the data point is the best fit model spectra folded through the detector response.
