See Appendix E if the CookBook for EVLA advice incl wide bands.
I would image each spectral window separately and you may even have to 
calibrate them that way although that probably is not needed.  If you 
have anextended source so that RFLAG must run with UVRANGE set then you 
will have to separate the spectral windows ("IFs").  You can put the 
IF-separate images back together with SPIXR whoch solves for spectral 
index and total from the 16 separate ones.
