[daip] bug in APCAL?

I am trying to run APCAL on some data that I have
UVCOPied from another dataset.  I have UVCOPied one
source and 8 of the 12 antennas.  When I run APCAL
on this UVCOPied data I get these messages, which
are O.K. because I copied source 1.

PCAL1: Task APCAL  (release of 31DEC01) begins
APCAL1: GETSOU: COULD NOT FIND DATA FOR SOURCE NO.     2
APCAL1: GETSOU: COULD NOT FIND DATA FOR SOURCE NO.     2

APCAL1: Appears to have ended successfully

But when I look at the SN table APCAL produces it only has
data for antenna 1.  Antenna 2 was not copied.  I looked at
the TY and GC tables and they have all the right antennas in
them.  

Here are my inputs:

Also, I decided to run APCAL on the original dataset and it worked
fine.
