     I am assuming that the "archive people" (VLA analysts they
are called) read the archive data into a computer here and then wrote
it out with FITTP.  Otherwise UVLOD and/or FITLD would not work.  The
archive itself is in VLA format and requires FILLM to convert it to
AIPS format.

    Actually LISTR is NOT simple - it invokes the entire calibration
system.  The CookBook suggests that you begin with 2 things.  Could
you run them and send me the output?  One is the AIPS verb IMHEADER on
each of the UV files, the other is LISTR with OPTYPE='SCAN'.  The
former tells me what files are attached to your data, the latter tells
me about their contents.  The INPUTS to the LISTR that failed might
also tell me something.
