What data did you download from the archive?

I just downloaded the 5 files from AO123 from June 29 1995 and loaded
them with FILLM and got just two output files a LINE and a channel 0

IMHEADE:

I note that the header you sent had a negative frequency and only 1
stokes and 1 IF.  The latter could be okay but not the first.

AO123 has a lot more data at other configurations at a latter time as
well, which I ignored.
