[daip] Phase calibrator flux difference issues

Hi,

In one of the archival data that we are looking at, 22306-39428 is used as
a phase calibrator in K and X bands. My collaborator who is analyzing the
data finds that in K band (where this source is not a point source), the
GetJy flux (0.6 Jy) of this source and the flux derived from its image
(0.80+/-0.01) are differed by ~ 0.3 Jy. Because we got some unexpected
results we were trying to image the phase cal and see.

Is this source a variable in Kband? Is it advisable to rely on this
measurement?

Thanks,
Resmi
