hello,

i just attempted to run LISTR on a newly loaded VLA dataset and got the
following error.

MSGserver: Starting AIPS task logging, Inet domain

hostna> task #: Message
----------------------------------------
landau> LISTR1: Task LISTR  (release of 31DEC04) begins
landau> LISTR1: SCANUV: ERROR    2 DOING I/O TO TERMINAL
landau> LISTR1: Purports to die of UNNATURAL causes
landau> LISTR1: landau       31DEC04 TST: Cpu=       0.0  Real=       1

i had not changed the inputs from the last successful run, except to look
at the new dataset.  i then tried a dataset that had been processed
before.  i got the same error.  in addition, the following error was
reported on the command line (not the messge server)

 ZTTYIO: INVALID NCHARS =   0

my inputs are given below.
i have tried using all versions (OLD, NEW, TST, '') all with the same
result.  i also set restore 0 to clear anything that i might have done
wrong.



any ideas?
