[Ifeffit] problem with E0 (enot) parameters

Hi Calvin, 
thanks for the email. I have tried to find something on mailing list
about E0 but it seems that my "searching words" were not correct. I
found only few posts but non of them explained (or followed) the problem
with large enot.
enot parameters are closed to eachother e.g. enot_C = 12.597(+-0.654)
and enot_N=12.407(+-1.776); correlations e.g. enot_N and delr_N=0.744,
enot_C and delr_C=0.605 enot_C and enot_N=-0.313
more detail you can find in the attachment or below. I have found that
the value of the first background variable is large (-3437(+-23034))
when I constrain both enot's parameters I do not see huge changes in
parameters, chi^2 enot, amp, delr and ssh are the same in the range of
uncertainties.
I agree with you that program can shift not the correct parameter, but
why every time I change parameters (I shift parameters from the local
minimum) their come back?

cheers
darek
