is there a bug in the frequencies printed to file with POSSM?

i have a file for which the header looks like:

AIPS 3: Image=TITAN     (UV)         Filename=TITAN       .LINALL.   1

and i run a POSSM on it, printing to an output file, and the output
file looks like:

why are all the frequencies the same?
