HELP SECTION
GAINERR
Type: Adverb (Real array, 30 elements)
Use: Specifies the estimated RMS gain error (in gain units,
ie. dimensionless) for each element of an array.
Null Value: NONE ( 0 => no gain error)
Tasks:
CALIB.....Determines antenna calibration: complex gain. GAINERR is
used only with the gain contrained solution type.
SCIMG.....Full-featured imaging plus self-calibration loop with
editing. GAINERR as in CALIB durinng self-cal steps.
SCMAP.....Imaging plus self-calibration loop with editing. GAINERR
as in CALIB durinng self-cal steps.
UVFIT.....Fits source models to uv data. GAINERR are the initial
guesses of the antenna gains to be fit. 0 -> no fit.
UVGIT.....Fits source models to uv data. GAINERR are the initial
guesses of the antenna gains to be fit. 0 -> no fit.
Procedures:
IMSCAL....Large image self-cal with IM2CC and OOCAL. GAINERR is
passed to CALIB.
OOCAL.....Determines antenna complex gain with frequency-dependent
models. GAINERR is passed to CALIB.
