I am using gain normalization in CALIB (CPARM(2)=1) and have
specified
AIPS 1: ANTUSE 1 3 Mean gain is calculated
AIPS 1: 6 7 (CPARM(2)>0) using only the
AIPS 1: 9 10 listed antennas. See explain.
AIPS 1: *rest 0
I get
pingor> CALIB1: The following antennas are used in the gain normalization
pingor> CALIB1: 1
pingor> CALIB1: RPOL, IF= 1 The average gain over these antennas is 1.024E+00
pingor> CALIB1: RPOL, IF= 2 The average gain over these antennas is 9.767E-01
pingor> CALIB1: LPOL, IF= 1 The average gain over these antennas is 1.027E+00
pingor> CALIB1: LPOL, IF= 2 The average gain over these antennas is 9.779E-01
Which seems to say that it is only using the first antenna for the
normalization. I did a 24 hr boxcar smooth on the resulting SN table and
the gains listed are exactly the ones used for antenna 1. Therefore I
conclude that the gain normalization is indeed being done only using antenna
1 rather than those that I listed with ANTUSE.
