setbandsensitivity(whichband, bandname, freqlow, freqhigh, bandwidth, tsys, efficiency)
Description
Specify band-dependent parameters which influence the sensitivity, such as antenna efficiency,
bandwidth, and system temperature. Opacity and decorrelation are handled automatically
through the site testing data.
Arguments
