[evla-sw-discuss] Delay Model pseudo VCI

Antenna numbers are rather a legacy item.  All the modern stuff has String
names.  I do get them from Telcal, and have to construct a String from them,
but I'd rather not propagate that usage.  (It gets in trouble when we add
PT, which doesn't have a number, though the Modcomps called it 29.)

I have in the database already an antenna dependent number for giving the 
multiplier of a base frequency for the antenna dependent LO frequency offset. 
I was thinking of using that to map to port number.  Then something your 
side would need to map that to a hardware address.  (Which for protype use 
would probably most easily be hard coded.)

I vaguely remember James recommending ports above 50000.
