Hi Eric,

I'm trying to use FRING with APARM(5)>2. However, due to some hardware failures I got an uneven distribution of IFs. I can probably split the data out and VBGLU them again, but this is cumbersome and prone to me making mistakes. Is there possibility to include eg an ICHANSEL parameter (or some other parameter with at least 8 values) where I specify the distribution of start/stop IFs per baseband in FRING?
This has more uses, eg when people have distributed their lines unevenly over AC/BD or use one IF in one baseband for  a line and the rest as continuum (the line IF will be calibrated separately, but then there are an uneven number continuum IFs per baseband), etc.
thanks, as always
