Hi Hanno,

The b-factor (an old time VLBI term) is an amplitude scaling.  I fear it might
cause a problem for you because the explain file says that if OPCODE='' then
everything is ignored *except* APARM(1).  I would check the amplitudes and see
if they look O.K., (from my reading of the code) they may be high by the
sqrt(90).  If you don't want to rerun APCAL you can probably correct the SN
table by the same factor with SNCOR(OPCODE='mula').

Cheers,

Amy
