Hi Eric,
We recently observed Sgr A* using EVLA at 7mm in the A-array using
2x1Ghz band as the headers below show.
We combined the data using avspc and then proceeded calibrating the data
following self-cal (P and A&P)
Turned out the imaging quality is really bad and can't see any extended
emission except Sgr A*.
I am suspecting that because of the delay across the
band and the consequent poor deconvolution that we are getting
terrible images. Any suggestions as to we should proceed properly
(step-by-step including self-cal on channel data above).
Many thanks,
Farhad
