I confirm in the CEOS specification spectral radiance values are expressed in 10*W m-2 sr-1 um-1 units. However, clarification must be done only for US processed data. The common used spectral radiance units for MSS and TM product is mW*(cm-2 sr-1 um-1) while it is W*(m-2 sr-1 um-1) for ETM+. The conversion factor is 10 when going from the one to the other.
