@AstroRipples , off the top of my head, this is happening because of the fldmap
being nearest
for G-Jones application (then since both the fields in F0 tables are at the same distance, there would be confusion for mstransform). To confirm, could you please share output/caltables/callib-PipelineRun_Continuum-1551621148-1kgb-transform__2.txt
?
Hi @KshitijT 👋 thanks, yeah I suspect that's exactly what's happening. Log file attached: callib-PipelineRun_Continuum-1551621148-1kgb-transform__2.txt
I think this is a bit hardcoded at the moment, will try and make options available.
I think this should fix it:
The fix is on branch issue-1474
Hi @SpheMakh 👋 thanks for pushing this fix... I've re-installed CARACal
but I think I may be encountering the same issue still, so either it's not fixed or (possibly) I pulled the wrong version, so I wanted to double-check. I've performed the initial calibration and CARACal
is at the stage of generating inspection plots, but the inspect worker is failing with a list index out of range
error when trying to plot the secondary...
I suspect this means that CARACal
is merging the two different PKSB1934-638 fields into one, which may have knock-on problems (#1509). The traceback is below and the full log is appended at the end.

Hi folks,
Encountered a new (silly) issue when trying to process MGCLS data with
CARACal
. The continuum calibration has completed successfully and I'm now trying to apply the solutions to the target field. However, in the case of this observing run, the primary calibrator PKS B1934-638 (I'm having none of this J2000 nonsense) was observed as both flux/bandpass and interleaved gain calibrator.They're in the MS under two different field names, and so
CARACal
'stransform
worker is getting confused and can't decide which to use. The full log is at the end of this post, and the excerpt fromapplycal()
is below:Having looked through the documentation of the
transform
worker, I don't see a way to specify which field the gains are to be applied from. I know I can do this manually inCASA
(using thegainfield
input toapplycal
), and will use this route to keep momentum going, but I thought I'd raise this issue.Log file: log-caracal_split.txt
