SY table values are easily made useless by RFI, so it may be wise to move values from good spectral windows to those so affected. The output table will be a new file. NOTE: if you average IFs using more than one in APARM, the average is done in the recorded parameters Pdif, Psum, Pgain, and Tcal. However, TYAPL applies them in ratios: Tcal/Pdif for gains and Tcal * Psum / Pdif for weights. Averaging should really be done in these parameters in TYAPL rather than by SYCOP. TYAPL does NOT offer this option at present. OPTYPE, ANTENNAS, and BPARM select the data which are altered by the requested operation. All other SY data are passed from INVERS to the output SY table version unchanged. Adverbs: INNAME.....Input image name (name). Standard defaults. INCLASS....Input image name (class). Standard defaults. INSEQ......Input image name (seq. #). 0 => 1. INDISK.....Disk drive # of input image. 0 => any. INVERS.....Version number of table to copy, 0=>highest no. Output version is highest + 1. APARM......List of IFs to average (first zero stops list) (required except for AR2L and AL2R where it is ignored) BPARM......List of IFs to receive the average value (required except for AR2L and AL2R where it is ignored) OPTYPE.....Controls which polarizations are used as: 'R ' average R and save in R, L unchanged 'L ' average L and save in L, R unchanged 'R2L' average R and save in L, R unchanged 'L2R' average L and save in R, L unchanged 'AR2L' IFs 1-n of R go to IFs 1-n of L, R unchanged (one to one copy with no averaging) 'AL2R' IFs 1-n of L go to IFs 1-n of R, L unchanged (one to one copy with no averaging) OTHER average R and save in R, average L and save in L ANTENNAS...List of antennas for which operation is to be done, all 0 => all. If any antenna number in the list is negative, then the list is of those antennas for which the operation is NOT desired. It will be done for all others. ----------------------------------------------------------------
