If FITLD is used to concatenate several files containing calibration transfer data these tables may contain many duplicate records that may cause other AIPS programs to fail. Run MERGECAL after loading the data to avoid this. Type RUN MERGECAL to define this procedure if it is not already defined. Adverbs: INNAME......Main file name (name). Standard defaults. INCLASS.....Main file name (class). Standard defaults. INSEQ.......Main file name (seq. #) 0 => highest. INDISK......Disk drive # of image. 0 => any. GCVER.......Version number of GC table to be fixed. 0 => highest. TYVER.......Version number of TY table to be fixed. 0 => highest. PCVER.......Version number of PC table to be fixed. 0 => highest. OUTVERS.....Version number of output tables (same for all three table types). 0 => highest + 1. TIMETOL.....Tolerance for time comparisons in seconds. Records will not be merged if their times differ by more than this amount. BADDISK.....Disk drive numbers to avoid for scratch files. ----------------------------------------------------------------
