Hi, I'm still trying to get a handle on understanding AIPS, I was 
wondering if you might be able to help me with a general question.

What does it mean to have a wild spread of gains on the stokes 'rl'?

ie.

Source=1635+381        : 0000, Stokes=LR  , IFS=  1-  1, Chans=   1-   1
Flux =  0.0000 Jy, Calcode = B   , Freq =  4.885100000 GHz
Amplitudes, 1000 =   0.001 Jy, averging type = Vector

this is before any calibrations or flagging.

I appreciate your help.
Jacob
