HELP SECTION

VLA
Type:  Verb
Use:   Pick up the antenna numbers of VLA antennas in the specified
       antenna file and puts them on the stack.  Thus
            PRINT VLA
       will print the VLA (old) antenna numbers while
            ANTENNAS = VLA
       will set the ANTENNAS array to the VLA-only (old) antenna
       numbers.  Note that the = sign is required in this usage.  But
       note carefully:
            DOINVER TRUE; ANTENNAS = VLA
       will set the ANTENNAS array to all antenna numbers except the
       older VLA antennas.

       See also verbs EVLA, VLBA, and HSA.  Note that only one of
       these four verbs may be used in a single command although more
       than one may be used in the same input line:
           ANTENNAS = VLA, EVLA           does NOT work
           ANTENNAS=VLA; BASELINE=EVLA    does work
Adverbs:
  INNAME.....Image name (name).      Standard defaults.
  INCLASS....Image name (class).     Standard defaults.
  INSEQ......Image name (seq. #).    0 => highest.
  INDISK.....Disk drive # of image.  0 => any.
  SUBARRAY...AN file ver. #          0 => 1
  DOINVERS...<= 0 => return VLA antennas
             >  0 => return all but the VLA antennas
