gmake/gfiddle

Douglas Friedel wrote a script to split a dataset and runs gmakes/gfiddle on its parts. There are currently some issues with using these old BIMA g-routines. This will be looked into

The basic procedure is to get a dataset with two sidebands. Depending on your correllator setting you can use the line= and select= keywords in gmakes to get those:

  gmakes  vis=cal1  out=gvis1 line=wide,2,1,3,3
  gfiddle vis=gvis1 out=gvis2 device=/xs nxy=5 fit=poly,0,2 clip=10
  gapply  vis=cal1  out=gcal1 gvis=gvis2

after which you can check the gain and phase corrected calibrator for any more problems.

Now these gains can be applied to the source, after which it can be mapped.

  gapply  vis=src   out=gsrc  gvis=gvis2
