[evla-sw-discuss] VLA antennas and the EVLA parameters database

DCS is stored in the database as an octal number.  At the moment, the
Executor doesn't distinguish DCS and DelayLine.  Will take a little 
fiddling if we want to support PT in the style to which it has become
accustomed.

How should we store delays in the database?  I'm thinking a pad delay,
an antenna delay, and four delays per band per antenna for the IFs.  
(Gets a little confusing because pad delays are very different for VLA 
and EVLA.)
