'DFT ' uses the direct Fourier transform, which is the most accurate. 'GRID' does a gridded-FFT interpolation model computation. ' ' allows the program to use the fastest method, which is usually DFT at the beginning of a Clean and GRID later when there are more Clean components to subtract Null value: ' ' => task chooses Tasks: BLCAL.......Compute closure offset corrections BLCHN.......Compute closure offset corrections on a channel-by-channel basis BLING.......Find residual rate and delay on individual baselines BPASS.......Computes spectral bandpass correction table CALIB.......Determines the calibration to be applied to a uv data set given a model of the source.
