I just checked the origin of these:
The flagging is done on tape weights.
The SCLVIS parameter was based on a scaling found under the name
VIS_SCAL in the UT (vis data) table. It is after CORVER 4.17
multiplied by the integration time in seconds. From the code in one
place, it states
C SCLVIS R The visibility scaling factor. If a visibility
C measured by the VLBA has weight w then the
C actual fraction of the integration period over
C which the data were acculated was w/SCLVIS and
C 0.0 <= |w| / SCLVIS <= 1.0.
This SCLVISnew = SCLVISold * int_time
and
w = w_tape * SCLCISnew.
New code can divide the weight by the value in the random parameter
pointed at by ILOCIT.
