1. Your FARS output cube has 1 pixel on the RM axis.  You must set    APARM(1) to something, e.g. 512 and check closely the other APARMs.2. The task you want to combine images is FQUBE not MCUBE.  It can    make a non-regular spectral axis which FARS and other tasks understand.3. the LAST thing you want to do is mix bands in a UV data set.  FARS workswith images so image each band, smooth to a similar resolution, and thencombine with FQUBE.Eric Greisen
