Hi!

I've hunted high and low for a way to identify bad channel numbers to use in flagging, and just can't find any task that seems suited to the task.  Would you suggest one?  My method has been to UVPLT ampl. vs channel and zoom in on the time range with bad channels until I can estimate the channel numbers, but it would be much nicer to have a list.

I've also hunted for a way to identify bad antennas and not found anything simple; is there a simple way?  My method had been to run CORER or UVFND and look for antennas that show up in many bad baselines, but I wonder if there is an easier way.  

Part of my problem is that I have trouble getting TV-tasks like TVFLG to respond...

Thanks for any guidance you can provide; I really have looked in the Cookbook and on line.

Best wishes,

Bob Gray
