Cross talk issues with WIYN MINIMO.

I was following the standard reduction process for photometric data when I found that my sciences frame had a lot cross talk. I was wondering if there exist any cross talk correction files for WIYN MINIMO?

I read the entire post http://iraf.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=83065 and I think I was unclear in my question. What I meant to ask was how do I create file a xtalkfile for ccdproc to correct for crosstalk and what is the format of a xtalkfile?

For some reason the link in my last post was to a different article, I've since corrected. However, the document to which it refers no long seems to exist, you might also see http://www.wiyn.org/stella_minimo.pdf for additional notes.

As for how to measure the crosstalk, see the program comments in the mscred$src/xtcoeff.cl script file. If you have additional questions, I'll have to punt to Frank for answers.
