The ORIGIN keyword is reserved in primary HDUs as a string and appears 
several places within AIPS Memo 117.  In the table HDU for SN tables, 
there is a use of the same keyword for private purposes by AIPS CALIB 
task.  That is not a good idea and I was unaware of it until your 
e-mail.  It is harmless.
