[daip] Trouble reading in lowband data set with OBIT, in AIPS.

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble reading in low-band data sets.

As a test I tried reading in a dataset I read in a 
month ago,
which worked fine then but doesn't now.

I'm trying to use OBIT through AIPS, with BDFLIST and 
BDF2AIPS.

The data set I started trying to read in is:
   
/lustre/fowen/TSUB0001.sb11188347.eb11264203.56135.03471128472

The data set that I read in a month ago and now can't 
read, at least not completely, is:
   
/lustre/fowen/TSUB0001_sb11323316_1_001.56148.12726436343

I had the same problem with both.


Both datasets have one configuration (0) which is 
4-band only,
12168 channels,
and another configuration(1) which is 4 and P band 
together,
with 1 spectral window of 512 channels starting at 24MHz,
and 3 spectral windows of 512 channels each, starting at
152, 280, and 408 MHz.


It seems to get configuration 0 fine, and the first 
spectral
window of configuration 1 fine, but not the second-fourth
spectral windows of configuration 1.  When I ran it before
with these inputs, it wrote 3 separate files into AIPS 
without
me having to do anything special.


I can't tell from what it's telling me if this is a 
BDF error or
an AIPS error or some combination.


Can you help?

Thanks,
-s-
