Surajit, in his polcalib.py and primary_beam.py has used a different Stokes convention. He defined XY=U-iV, instead of U+iV. Please see Section 7.2 of https://arxiv.org/pdf/1101.1764 for understanding the source of this. We should use the U+iV convention to be consistent with the other folks. Dave Woody's Stokes beam models also use this conevntion. This needs to be updated.
