[evlatests] ea20 switched power wrong at X-band

[Wes Grammer]

Rick, I checked the data files on \\filehost, and the Tcal column 
appears to be in the correct range, so I don't understand how the Tcals 
got scaled. However, I did notice in the column heading of the file, 
there is a space between '1st' and 'LO'. If the text file was imported 
using software, and is using spaces as delimiters, perhaps the parser 
got confused and associated the next column over as the Tcals. This 
column contains Tcals scaled by a factor of 10, which matches what you 
are seeing.

I noticed a number of the other Tcal files appear to use commas as 
delimters - not sure why X-band s/n 004 is different.

John, thanks for checking this out, and running down the cause.
