[evlatests] Q-band masquerade!

An extraordinary situation has occurred in my noontime test run:
The file asked for 2 minute observations at all bands, with Q-band
last, and following K-band.
Upon filling the data, no Q-band file appeared. However, the
duration of the K-band observation was found to be twice as long as
requested. Sure enough, the real Q-band data are found to be
seamlessly appended to the K-band data! The phases are stable, and it
appears to be the appended data are indeed the mislabelled Q-band data.
The AIPS header indicates only a single frequency, at the default
K-band frequencies.
What happened? How did Q get turned into K?
