PRIMARY

        [CLEAN\]PRIMARY [BeamSize] [/TRUNCATE Percent]

    Apply approximate primary beam correction to a single field  deconvolved
    (CLEAN)  image, in order to create the sky brightness image (named SKY).
    The truncation level is given by default by variable CLEAN_TRUNCATE, and
    can be overriden by the /TRUNCATE option.

    The primary beam model is a simple Gaussian.  If BeamSize (in radian) is
    specified, uses the corresponding half-power beam size to determine  the
    Gaussian  beam.  If not, the parameters are taken from the telescope pa-
    rameters, as found in the telescope section of the CLEAN image  and  the
    observing  frequency  from  the  CLEAN image (e.g. for ALMA it uses 1.13
    Lambda/D).

    The SKY image is written with extension .lmv-sky by command WRITE.
