Yes - in fact the old code is correct. RR and LL do wander apart<br />in phase due to the difference in parallactic angle between the<br />2 telescopes. I suspect that the DiFX correlator "corrects" this<br />with a phase shift. I have added to the old code two corrections<br />1. We must do this whether or not the D terms are non-zero<br />2. By default, I will correct for the parallactic angle (a la CLCOR)<br />so that a point source at the origin has a constant I visibility. To <br />get the actual observed vis one can set DPARM(4) > 0 and then<br />the code does not do the correction.<br /><br />Note that I also changed to polarization type to APPROX from<br />VLBI. I am not sure what the latter does.<br /><br />Eric Greisen<br />
