[daip] VBCAL - possible change of numbers of antennas?

[Hans-Rainer Kloeckner]

Hi Eric,
	
	I have tried to update my AIPS installation (doing the binary installation), but so far nothing changed.

I guess I should be more patient or? 

cheers,

Hans

I guess the way to bypass my problem is to change the relative amplitude of these data set and I was running into the task VBCAL.

Now I would like to implement this in our GMRT pipeline on our cluster (which I have little access to the software setup). So my question is would it be possible to change the number of antennas to e.g. 30 (GMRT) or larger, please.
