Yes you are right. It is not about VLVA antennas. 
This is about VLBA correlator in Socorro.

>The antenna in question is GO[ldstone]
This means that Goldstone antenna has a very bad digitizer at
the given BBC.

The two bit digitizer is more sensitive to the digitizing levels 
including (of cource) to the variability of the levels in time.

>I assume it was 2-bit correlation (how can I check?)

You can look in the CQ table column 13

I thought it worked for stuff correlated at Socorro.  Does that mean
it doesn't work for non-VLBA terminal antennas?  For example, the
a DSN dish?

I assume it was 2-bit correlation (how can I check?).  The antenna in
question is GO[ldstone], its IF2, Stokes LL, 1.7 GHz (only one stokes
recorded), 128channels of 125KHz each, 2IFs.  It was a VSOP run,
28-MAR-1999.

     thanks,
