Hi!

I'm running an AIPS procedure that calls IMEAN to set ACTNOISE, then calls SAD, for each channel in turn, and IMEAN is stopping on the first flagged channel (channel 1; there are many) and SAD never gets going... Is there a way to get around this, so IMEAN and SAD can get past flagged channels?  

Thanks for any suggestions; some details are below.

Best wishes,  

Bob Gray
