Starting from scratch I ran through the calibration in a couple hours with no major problems. Only problem was I couldn't remember the syntax Tim C. used to apply a uv-range selection on just 3C286. So I just used all the data. Solutions look reasonable, but the flux scale is a bit off. Worse is that the FG table was not applied so there is still a lot of bad data. I need to apply the flags from editing in AIPS and start over. I applied the FG table in AIPS and then ran UVCOP for good measure. Started over (play it again Sam) and ran through the calibration. Everything looked fine (flux densities, solutions, etc) until I look at the corrected data in visplot. All garbage. Don't know what went wrong. Find Athol on Monday. --- end of testing.
