READ-GSD-MAP

Similar to READ-GSD-DATA, but it reads spectra from a GSD spectrum directly into the map file. This is fine if there are no duplicates, but gets tricky if, for example, your observation sequence came back to the center every $5^{th}$ integration for calibration purposes. Also not clear that it is sensible if there is more than one receiver per spectrum. Much better to use a procedure such as READALL.SPX to generate independent SPECX data files for each receiver, and then to write a further macro to average these into the map file. Not recommended.

Examples:

    >> read-gsd-map<CR>
    Original I.F. channel number? [ 0] 1<CR>
    GSD scan numbers? (^Z to finish) 43<CR>

             (x,y) offset = ( -30.0, -30.0) arcsec
             (r,d) offset = (  30.0, -30.0) arcsec
