Tim asked me to submit an enhancement request for the ability to plot closure phases and amplitudes in visplot. I tried submitting the bug, but the submit button in daily was broken! I bugged the bugger in weekly (Bug AOCso01643) and also submitted the enhancement request there (Bug AOCso01642). Now going back to Daily so I can go back to work on testing new editing functions. Some bugs (to be reported eventually in weekly): BBB -- Bug AOCso01650 Regardless of the field selected the name of all sources (fields) is written at the top of the plotting window. It would be nice if just the source(s) selected are described here. Also it would be nice to have units on the Y axis when visibilities are shown be they Jy, mJy or whatever. BBB - Bug AOCso01649 I've discovered a source, J1337-129 that is flaring to 220 Jy! according to visplot in daily. But before I send out the telegram we had better be sure it isn't another problem with the aips++ solver. Fluxscale in aips++ gives: Flux density for 1337-129 (spw=1) is: 14.625 +/- 0.057 Jy Flux density for 1337-129 (spw=2) is: 14.711 +/- 0.060 Jy GETJY in AIPS gives: GETJY2: 1337-129 : 0 A 1 12.91943 +/- 0.42206 GETJY2: 2 12.91365 +/- 0.43729 Other source, like 3C286 and 0713+438 are in good agreement between fluxscale, GETJY, and visplot. Flux density for 0713+438 (spw=1) is: 0.313 +/- 0.001 Jy Flux density for 0713+438 (spw=2) is: 0.316 +/- 0.002 Jy GETJY2: 0713+438 : 0 A 1 0.39313 +/- 0.01554 GETJY2: 2 0.39659 +/- 0.01611 These are not exactly the same because of missing opacity and gain corrections in the aips++ calibration. --- end of testing.
