Synopsis
vlaendtoend()


Description
This test fills, edits, calibrates, and images a VLA mosaic of Orion at 8GHz, starting from a VLA export format file in the AIPS++ data repository. The following steps are taken:
1.
The vlafiller is run on a standard VLA export file in the data repository.
2.
The data are flagged using flagger to remove a known bad antenna (21) and the first ten seconds of each scan ( needed for a ``feature'' of the VLA on-line system).
3.
The fluxes of the calibraters are set using imager.setjy.
4.
calibrater is used to calibrate the data based on the known flux calibrater and the phase calibrater.
5.
flagger.filter is used to filter very anomalous points.
6.
imager is used to create a mosaic of the the ten pointings in the data set.
