ALIAS
Type: Adverb : array (30)
Use:  List of antenna numbers to be considered the "same" for some
      purpose.  All of the ones listed will be called by the first
      number in the list.  The list may be of any length up to 30 and is
      terminated by the first value <= 0.  Thus,any antenna that appears
      in ALIAS(2...30) will be treated as if it was actually the antenna
      specified in ALIAS(1). e.g. ALIAS = 3 7 9 1 0 results in antennas
      1,3, 7 and 9 being treated as if they were actually one antenna
      [which is labelled antenna 3].

      This adverb will be used most with space VLBI experiments.
Tasks:
  VPLOT....Plots data from a u,v data base making a plot file.  If a
           valid CLEAN map is specified, the model values wlll be
           plotted.  Plotting is done one baseline per plot with the
           number of plots per page specified by NCOUNT.
