SOLMIN
Type:  Adverb  (scalar)
Use:   This adverb specifies the minimum number of solution
       sub-intervals that willl be used for a solution.  The number of
       solution sub-intervals in a solution (SOLINT) interval is set
       with SOLSUB.  Thus, if a scan is 10 minutes long and SOLINT=6
       and SOLSUB=3, then solution intervals 0-6, 2-8, 4-10, 6-10, and
       8-10 are possible.  If SOLMIN=1, all will be used; if SOLMIN=2,
       the 8-10 is ignored; and if SOLMIN=0 or 3, the 6-10 is also
       ignored.
Null value:
       0   => SOLSUB.
Tasks:
   CALIB.........Determines antenna-based complex gains.
   FRING.........Global fringe-fits to determine antenna-based phase,
                 delay, and rate.
   KRING.........Global fringe-fits to determine antenna-based phase,
                 delay, and rate.
Procedures:
   IMFRING.......Large image delay fitting with IM2CC and OOFRING.
   IMSCAL........Large image self-cal with IM2CC and OOCAL
   OOCAL.........Determines antenna complex gain with frequency-
                 dependent models.
   OOFRING.......Fringe fit data to determine calibration with spectral
                 index options
