Sorry folks, I sent this to the group from a non-member account, so here I
am trying again...

Subject: Set of imaging and UV results for C arrays on SIL images

with

> files is represented by b7 (i.e. ALMA band 7) for 345GHz - I have prefixed
> the 7 with a b to still allow direct input of integer wavelengths in mm
when

> etc. The UV distributions are now shown on plots with axes the same size,
> although I have yet to find how to keep the bins in the histogram the same

scale
> values to useful standard levels given the dependences on all parameters,
so
> I have let them autoscale. The grey scale results are no longer shown in
> negative form.

> The results are presented on the web pages listed below (please use this
