Dear Dr. Murphy,

                            This is Indrajit from the Solar Radio 
Astronomy Group in Indian Institute of Astrophysics  Bangalore. 
Presently I am involved in the process of converting raw visibility data 
(UV data) obtained with the Gauribidanur RadioHeliograph 
(http://www.iiap.res.in/centers/radio). To identify and flag the bad 
antennas I want to use the task VPLOT in AIPS. While doing so I am 
facing some problems which I have mentioned below. I would appreciate 
your kind help and guidance in overcoming this problem.

Thank You.

Regards,

Indrajit.

PS:

The attached file contains observations on two calibrator sources 
Cygnus-A and Tau-A during their transit over Gauribidanur.

In our case we have ANTENNAS=64.
