I believe you can output cluster means from GenomeStudio. However, if you're using GenomeStudio, I highly recommend calculating the BAF and LRR values in GenomeStudio, and exporting those columns along with your intensity data. > > 2.

The illumina samples are all controls that were run on different plates, so the default of "by.plate" gives you only one sample per plate and all NAs. (In general, illumina samples should be called by study and not by plate.)
