    <p>Hi James,</p>
    <p>    I recall that Nick and I worked a bit on extracting spectra
      from a fits cube one or two years ago.  This may still be
      un-merged code in my forked repo.</p>
    <p>When you say '<span style="font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"
        class="font"><span style="font-size:11pt" class="size">high-resolution
          spectrum FITS file' what do you mean with this. A 1D spectrum?
          Even a 1D spectrum can be stored with naxis1,2,3 = 1,1,NAXIS3
          where the WCS of axis1 and 2 are used to label the
          coordinates.   That format is really still a 3D cube and
          should work in my version.<br>

      <div>Hey James,<br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Specutils dev here. Specutils does not have a FITS loader for
        every data file (though we do have an extensive collection). I'd
        suggest following the <a
href="https://specutils.readthedocs.io/en/latest/custom_loading.html#creating-a-custom-loader"
          moz-do-not-send="true">documentation</a> on creating a custom
        data loader for your FITS file. Likewise, if you feel so
        inclined, you can submit a PR to the repository with the loader
        you create so that others trying to load similar data files
        won't have to create their own loaders.<br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>If you're still unable to load the data file after having
        written your data loader (or need help writing the data loader),
        please open an issue on <a
          href="https://github.com/astropy/specutils/issues"
          moz-do-not-send="true">specutils github repo</a>. We're eager
        to make specutils as usable as possible, so please let us know
        if you run into trouble.<br>
      </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Cheers,<br>
