When components from facet I are added to facet J the component widths 
used are those of the fatter (larger product of BMAJ*BMIN) clean beam 
and the amplitude is adjusted down by the factor 
BMAJ(J)*BMIN(J)/BMAJ(f)*BMIN(f)
where f = I or J - the fatter one.

There is not some addition convolution...
