The obvious corollary to be deduced here is that for observations
already taken, RCP should be taken to be Y, and LCP to be X.

Swapping cables to make the antennas match the intention would mean
that until model2script is updated the mapping betweeen (RCP, LCP)
and (X, Y) would depend on time.  Kind of annoying.
