Hi Arnaud,

This is driving me somewhat crazy because this used to be a somewhat common 
problem.  My only thought is that the interpolations made the file too long. 
Have you checked the GC table (with PRTAB) to make sure there is an entry for 
ante 3?  Also, please tell me where I can get this data so I can do some 
debugging (if it was correlated here you can just tell me the date of observation).

Thanks it is pretty awesome to get so much attention for the Pleiades, I hope it 
will help raise the profile of VLBI.

Amy
