[daip] loading ATCA data (fwd)

[Amy Mioduszewski]

I told her to try loading her ACTA data into MIRIAD or AIPS++
and then writing it out again.  Ralph said there is an AIPS
task called ATLOD, but we do not seem to have it, something they
only have at ATNF?

Hi Amy,
I'm told that you are the person to ask advice about loading ATCA data
into AIPS :)

I have no idea how ATCA data are or aren't compatible with AIPS, but 
I seem to think from the ATCA/MIRIAD manual that they are some sort of 
non-standard fits file.  In any case, I have this ATCA data which I want
to load into AIPS, but when I run FITLD, it says there is a non-standard
fits header and dies.  Are there some tricks I can use to get it loaded
into AIPS?  or would you recommend just dealing with it in MIRIAD?

Thanks!
