Description

uvcopy needs to be able to copy the gain, leakage and bandpass calibration from the parent continuum band to the zoom band.

The milestone here is wrong. Cross-calibration of zoom bands is in release 3.

First try of this indicates that this works ok. Copied continuum gains and bandpass from 2x2GHz bands to 2 zoombands consisting of 4 blended zooms each. In auto correlations this removes slopes across zoomband, may also introduce very slight wiggle in some spectra (there's only 3 continuum channels across the 2.5 MHz of the zoom spectrum). Interpolation seems smooth. Need to build in a check to warn if gain/bandpass from wrong ifchain is applied to a zoomband.

Building in a check for ifchain was investigated, but it seems incompatible with the way gpcopy works. gpcopy doesn't actually look inside the uv files it works with, it just reads and copies headers and calibration tables. It's up to the user to make sure the operations performed make sense.
