[daip] SAD reference center output question

Dear Designated AIP,
When I run SAD on DBCON'd images vs. single-UV file images, it gives
different output.  The single-UV images give a reference center, e.g.
Reference Center: 11 20 15.0129  12 59 29.703
, and then list the RA and DEC relative to that center:
    #      Peak    Dpeak     Flux    Dflux    RA---SIN   DEC--SIN   Dx
     Dy       Maj     Min      PA    Dmaj    Dmin    Dpa
    1    352.572(112.386)  868.146(372.532)  -61.32310  -23.02841(
0.16782 0.13419) 1.42381 0.70172  55.6( 0.45386 0.22368 16.8)

whereas the DBCON'd image gives output like:
#      Peak    Dpeak     Flux    Dflux       RA---SIN      DEC--SIN
Dx      Dy        Maj     Min     PA    Dmaj   Dmin  Dpa
    1    449.147(117.388)  616.219(252.486) 11 20 11.1336  12 58
45.838(   0.116   0.318)    2.866   1.035   2.6(  0.749  0.270   9)

Is it possible to force them do display in the same manner?  I didn't
see any option in the SAD inputs, so perhaps the choice of relative
vs. absolute coordinates depends on something in the header?

Thanks,
Adam
