<p>Dear VLA staff, </p>
<p>I am new the AIPS to do the calibration and found that there are large delay on antenna18, spectral window 9-16 and polarization R, as shown below: </p>
<p><img src="cid:12f0cc83c867332a39686853d4c0d63a@help.nrao.edu" /></p>
<p>But the amplitude solution on the corresponding antenna28, spw9-16, and R seems correct, as shown in the following, </p>
<p></p>
<p><img src="cid:aae29d51d0c3fb2cd653e799ec3dbaef@help.nrao.edu" /></p>
<p></p>
<p>In this situation, do I need to flag the data of antenna28, spw9-16, and stokes RR? </p>
<p></p>
<p>Actually, I have flagged them and re-calibrated, but there seems to have a new outlier on L polarization for amplitude solutions, as shown below:</p>
<p><img src="cid:76f4b1c05e9aafcce3b4b35b2cb9c937@help.nrao.edu" /></p>
<p></p>
<p>This new outlier is also present in the antenna1 to antenna20, as shown below: </p>
<p></p>
<p><img src="cid:9f261b6fca58c5d7b6cf3cfe17f3d401@help.nrao.edu" /></p>
<p></p>
<p>I am wondering where this outlier comes from after the flag. </p>
<p>So do you have any idea about this, and do you have any suggestions about the situation?</p>
<p>Thank you very much in advance. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Aiyuan Yang</p>
