Alison Peck came to me with a problem with VLBACPOL which
turned out to be a bug in UVCOP. It seems if you copy
a few minutes of data with UVCOP (which VLBACPOL does) and
the attached CL tables do not have entries in that time
but the time range _is_ covered by the "interval time" the
CL table on the output file will be blank. For example,
TIMER 0 15 30 0 0 15 34 0 will result in an empty CL table
if the CL table entries covering that time look like this:
COL. NO. 1 2 3 4 5 6
ROW TIME TIME INTER SOURCE ID ANTENNA SUBARRAY FREQ ID
NUMBER D/HMS D/HMS
1 0/15:29:17.4 00:05:00.0 1 5 1 1
2 0/15:35:04.5 00:05:00.0 1 5 1 1
This is a problem for VLBACPOL.
We found a way to work around it and I recommended that, in
the future, she use a shorter CL table interval than 5 minutes
(which, by the way, is the default in INDXR).
