UVSPLIT fails when small maxwidth specified

Post by and460 »

Hi Mark,

I am trying to use UVSPLIT to split a CABB 1-3GHz observation into 8MHz chunks throughout the band. When I stick maxwidth = 0.008 into UVSPLIT and run it, I get:

### Fatal Error: Too many output windows

I would assume that that means it simply doesn't like how many files I want it to split the original UV file into. Is this something that could be easily changed in the task, or would it be a more involved job or not feasible at all? I have a work-around that I can use to get around the issue, but it makes the job a fair bit more complex.

Cheers,

Craig.

Hi Craig,

I've increase the limit from 99 to 1024. So you should now be able to split your file into 2MHz chunks.
Updates should appear tonight.

Cheers,

Mark
