Non-real values of auto-correlations failed to pass the check of pyuvdata #399

Closed JianrongTan closed 2 years ago

JianrongTan commented 2 years ago

I have ran into an error when writing the outputs of pyuvsim to disk.

ValueError: Some auto-correlations have non-real values in data_array. You can attempt to fix this by setting fix_autos=True.

It seems pyuvsim.utils.write_uvdata has no controls on the parameter fix_autos (fix_autos is defaultly set to be false otherwise).

@JianrongTan this has been fixed now, please let us know if you have any further issues! Note that I'm separately making a PR on pyuvdata to inform the user what the maximum size of the imaginary component is when autos are detected to be complex.
