[daip] ANTAB: error when station name is FT

[Arnaud Collioud]

Dear AIPS developers,

I am using the task ANTAB to import the gain and tsys values for the station Fortaleza from an external file.
The file begins as:
GAIN FT  ELEV DPFU=0.013,0       FREQ=8030.1,9130.1
POLY=1.0000E+00
/
TSYS FT FT=1.0 TIMEOFF=0
INDEX= 'R1:R2', 'X', 'R3', 'R4', 'X', 'X', 'X', 'X'
/

The problem is that the station short name is 'FT' (as specified in the AN table), which is also a parameter of the ANTAB task (multiplying factor).
This leads to the following error message:

Task ANTAB  (release of 31DEC11) begins
ANTAB1: ZTXOP2: using translated file name =
ANTAB1: ZTXOP2: RDV88_reste_X.antabfs
ANTAB1: TXTCAL: GAIN RECORD MISSING STATION NAME
ANTAB1: Purports to die of UNNATURAL causes

How should I specify the station name to get rid of this error? Could I use an alias?

Best regards,
Arnaud
