CALIBRATION

smamfcal   - calculates calibration corrections (antenna gains, 
             delay parameters and bandpass shapes) from a multi-
             frequency observation; supports features for 
             pre-processing uv data prior to bandpass/gain
             solving, such as continuum vector normalization,
             weighting, and smoothing.

smagpplt   - plots and lists antenna gains, delay terms and 
             bandpass; there are options of smoothing or 
             polynomial fitting to the calibration curves.

phatrans   - transfers phase correction from gains derived from 
             a vis data observed at a lower frequency (freq1)
             to the phase corrections for the vis data observed 
             simultaneously at a higher frequency (freq2).

smatbpass  - removes time-dependent, antenna-based bandpass
             ripples.

smaflux    - sets the flux density scale of a visibility dataset 
             given a planet observation.

Descriptions of the keywords in the SMA calibration routines ( smamfcal, smagpplt, phatrans, smatbpass and smaflux ) can be found from the inline documentation.
