I looked for this by tunning the script Cquad4 which configures
all the boards in quad 4 to produce eight subbands and all four
polarization products.  Using d10 I found that 3Cx6C and 3Ax3C,
subband 7, produced garbage.  Those products are developed,
respectively, in CCC9 and CCC10 of the X0Y1 CC on b108-b-6.
Antsol, as reported by the fringe display, was tolerant of this
failure and no sign of it was seen there.
