I am working with some data that require applying a scaling factor to
the gains, and I have been attempting to do this using VBCAL.
However, when I look at resulting visibilities using, e.g., PRTUV, I see
that the program is turning zeros into infinities, e.g.,
BEFORE VBCAL:
TEST_32T 0.201599994 TB 1 RR 1 LL 1 RL 1
LR
Vis # IAT Ant Amp Phas Wt Amp Phas Wt Amp Phas Wt Amp
Phas Wt
30 0/02:57:14 1-30 0.0 -61 20 0.0 87 20 0.0-146 20 0.0
-84 20
31 0/02:57:14 1-31 0.0-103 20 0.0 95 20 0.0 92 20
0.0-106 20
AFTER VBCAL:
TEST_32T 0.201599994 TB 1 RR 1 LL 1 RL 1
LR
Vis # IAT Ant Amp Phas Wt Amp Phas Wt Amp Phas Wt Amp
Phas Wt
30 0/02:57:14 1-30 0.0 -21 20 Inf 87 20 Inf-146 20 0.0
-31 20
31 0/02:57:14 1-31 Inf-103 20 Inf 95 20 Inf 92 20
Inf-106 20
I found that this does not occur with a version of 31DEC08 aips, but this
was also a different machine architecture.
