[daip] FFT

[AIPS en Tuktoyuk]

Hi there,

wow, I'm really annoying with all these questions eh??  Sorry about that, I am 
an undergraduate student on a coop work term here in Mexico getting some real 
experience with astronomy research.  I am reading the AIPS manual and help files 
 looking for my answers before I bother you guys with my questions but I keep 
running into things I cant solve by reading help or explain files.  I really 
appriciate your assistance in making this a successful work term for me, this is 
helping me get a good grasp on the AIPS task's to work with radio telescope 
data.

  What I am trying to do is FFT the single-dish data I have to the UV domain to 
compare it to my interferometer UV data by plotting them as Amplitude Vs 
Baselength.  With these plots I will compare the amplitudes of the two UV sets 
in the 'overlap region' to determine a scaling factor.  Then I can scale, add 
the two in the UV domain and FFT(inverse) back to the image plane for a final 
image for analysis by my supervisor so he can write a paper for Astronomy 
Journal or another journal.
  
 I have used FFT but I have problems with it.  First of all it makes map files 
of the UV data not UV files to be plotted in UVPLT.  Is there a way I can plot 
amplitude Vs baselength for these map files of the UV data from FFT??
 
 Have a great day,
 Thanks again,
