Checklist for SRDP calibrations of VLA data, based heavily on the VLASS one.
Step-by-step guide
- hifi_flagdata - online flags. Notify scientist if >20% flagged
- hifv_priorcals - check for gain compression due to severe RFI
- hifv_testBDdcals - check for Data Transmission System (DTS) problems.
- hifv_flagbaddef - check that any DTS issues have been flagged.
- hifv_semiFinalBPdcals - check for any remaining DTS issues.
- hifv_solint - check solints for calibrators are reasonable (< a few mins for the long interval, > 0.45s for the short interval)
- fluxboot2 - check the input tables look clean and the model is reasonable.
