I looked at DFTPL and it does not ever show a bandwidth.  It lists the 
channel range, the IF range, and the frequency of the center channel of 
BIF.  The formula to determine that is correct, perhaps the FQ table 
from CASA has problems.  It would interest me to see it - can you run 
PRTAB on INEXT='FQ' and send me the output?
