Dear DAIP,
I have a standard VLA continuum data set at X-band, using 0137+331 as the
flux calibrator in A config. In this setup one uses only the inner 6
antennas when CALIBrating 0137+331, so most of the antenna entries in the
resulting SN/CL table are blank (I've verified this with LISTR/GAIN:
tesuque LISTR(31DEC01) 213 29-JAN-2001 09:44:35 Page 1

Freq= 8.435100000 GHz Ncor= 4 No. vis= 135384
Polarization = R Subarray = 1

etc.)
The odd part comes when I run TVFLG, applying these gains (DOCAL=1 or 2,
doesn't matter). I expected to see only calibrated data show up on my TV --
that is, I thought I would see only 6 antennas for 0137+331. In fact, *all*
show up. Is this a bug or a feature?
Thanks,
Michael
