Several choices:

1. Start up AIPS on your machine 
         aips da=pilabo
         ?34                  enter Frazer's number
         use the task MOVE to copy/move from his disk/number to your
         disk/number.  The adverb USER is used by things like mcat and
         ucat as well as the output user number in MOVE so you will
         need to keep changing it from 0 (Frazer) to you and back again

2. You may use FITS files on disk as an alternative - tasks FITTP,
   FITLD

I recommend the first choice.  What machine are you on - we may have
to allow Frazer's number on it....
