question mark replaces the capabilities of the magentaINPUT Command although the output format may be slightly
different.

- ... Number2
- The red CLASS/red CLIC is a "radio Julian date" (or "Jansky
Julian date"), which starts as
on the date of the first radio
observation by Karl Jansky. It is thus the Modified Julian date minus
60549. That choice was made to maximize the time interval over which
radio astronomical data could be usefully stored in an
integer*2, back when 2 bytes of header space per spectrum were
a significant consideration. This date has little meaning outside the
rather sparse community of souls gathered around the red CLASS and
red CLIC programs, however...

- If there were no pointing errors,
a single-dish of the same size as the interferometer antennas
would be strictly sufficient.

- The combination
is only optimal if the spectral index has no spatial variations. A
better handling of spatially variable spectral index is under study.

- ultimately, a similar DD, SS, DS and SD pseudo-Stokes polarization set
may be added for circular polarization. D is the first letter for
Dexter, the Latin name for Right, while S is the
first letter of Senester, the Latin name for Left.
