Meri - you must include Farhad's address or I can only reply to you

The addition of characters ti the source name is to avoid calling 
sources at different positions by the same name.  There is a planet 
mode in FILLM to avoid this but it should not arise on sources named in 
this fashion.  One can see the different coordinates on sources 23 
versus 28 here - the other conflicts are not included in Farhad's listing.

If you did not observe 3C286 at Q band - where instrumental gains are 
rather time variable, then you are probably out of luck.  Any 
contemporary data re likely to be in the proprietary period anyway...
