Hi again,
I see. Well, it is apparently not an easy fix. I do have reasons to set weights to constants. While not optimal, the current weights are far from optimal as well. However, LOFAR stations are very similar although there are a few different sizes. Hence constant weights are a good approximation to check for other errors in these data. However, I found that could use the CASA task "initweights" to set all weights to 1, after converting to MS, which is close enough for my testing purposes. Thank you for taking the time to explain the limits of ANTWT.

Best regards,
Eskil
