'Weak fringes' in a single-polarization experiment are always a slight
worry! Did you search the 'cross-hand' product Parkes-Mopra?

I'm very confident we have the polarization the right way around here (LCP
first). When the ATCA comes online that should prove it.

(CATIE needs to be set to;

        FUN XX+YY XX-YY XX+YY XX-YY

to put LCP first, which is the reverse of the default).

Cheers,
John R
