Dear Designated AIP,<br>
<br>
I have many pleas: I'm trying to work through the
calibration process following chapter four of the AIPS cookbook, but
I'm finding many points of confusion.<br>
<br>
For the moment: I've managed to load my data, I found with
LISTR that several antennas had very large RMS/low amplitude, and so I
used UVFLG to flag these antennas in the proper time range.
Judging from the message window, everything is working so far...<br>
<br>
Following blindly the cookbook, I arrive at 4.4.2, wherein
EDITA is explained as a tool for flagging on system temperature.
I start with "default edita", and then enter the adverbs given in the
cookbook. on "GO", my TV comes alive, with a panel for each
antenna I've requested. The day/times listed at the bottom seem
to bracket my entire dataset. <br>
<br>
Everything looks great, but each panel displays four
horizontal lines, at levels in the 25-40 K range. ie, the Tsys
reported is perfectly constant over my 9 hour track.<br>
<br>
What could I have done wrong to break my Tsys like this?<br>
<br>
Is this the kind of question the designated AIP is intended to address, or have I in fact come to the wrong place?<br>
<br>
many thanks!<br>
<br>
