If one is unfortunate enough to have the DISH_DIAMETER set to zero in the antenna table, this will cause the WEIGHT column to be nan which will prevent imaging. Perhaps an error message somewhere will suffice...

Arguably weight should be 0 in this case (a 0m dish will have infinite noise thus 0 weight), but if NaN is what CASA sets it to, then it is what it is...
We can't really put a sanity check on every input. When people try to do that, they invariably err on the side of over-restrictiveness, and only cause more complaints. A warning is ok, but I wouldn't call this a high priority fix...
I can appreciate why CASA puts NaNs if dish size is zero. The WEIGHT column should only be populated if you set elevation and/or shadow limits, therefore having a non-physical dish size should lead to a NaN. If one specifies elevation and shadow limits they should make sure that the dish parameters are reasonable.
