Peter,

I join the Amy's suggestion. 
We need a piece of your data to solve the problem.

Thanks

Leonia

Leonia, here are answers to your questions.


>Check that all antennas were involved at the observation at the TIMERANG of
>PCCOR. Use POSSM with DOCALIB = -1 to see if the phases are smooth
>(for separate IFs) at the nine baselines (all antennas with REFANT=5) for the
>selected TIMERANG (selected at PCCOR).

-All antennas were involved and pulsecals were on.  The baseline phases were 
smooth within each IF (though quite steep).


>Repeat POSSM with  DOCALIB=1 and GAINUSE=2 for the same TIMERANG.
>THe phases have to be allign for all IFs and all 9 baselines.

-This seems to have zeroed the slope of the phases (as I believe it should) 
but leaves them misaligned between IFs in a very characteristic way:  Every 
other IF is aligned.  The first, third, fifth and seventh IFs have phases 
centered on one value while the second, fourth, sixth and eighth IFs have 
phases centered on a different value.  This occurs for all baselines though 
the separation between even and odd IF phase values is not the same for all 
baselines. Weird, huh? Does that make sense or should I attach a jpg.


>I hope that GAINVER=1 (used by you at CLCAL) corresponds to the virgin CL
>table with REAL=1, IMAG=0 for all entries. Does it?

-Yes.


>Please check the SN table 1 (the output of PCCOR) using PRTAB or SNPLT.
>All amplitudes should be equled to one. All antennas have to have entries.

-This appears to be the case.


>Send me the output of LISTR of the data with OPTIPE='scan"

-Here is LISTR output.

>Do you have one FREQID at your data?

-I have already separated the data into X,C and S bands.
Thanks,
