[daip] GETJY problem

[George Gilbert]

We had tried this earlier and found that the SN table, after running
CALIB, had many NaN entries (and aN entries too). Running VLACALIB however
appeared to run successfully when producing this output.

> You may forget to run CALIB before GETJY or use the wrong SN table version.
> So your SN table does not have a solution for your calibrators.
> Check the SN table you use by PRTAB or SNPLT for example.
