Why are you using ANTAB?  VLBA stations have the data provided with the 
FITS-IDI file and ANTAB should not be required (or used).

I note that ANTAB ignores data records that it thinks do not match times 
of the current data in the NX table.  Have you gotten into more trouble 
with all the various FREQIDs you have?
