Specify band-dependent parameters which influence the sensitivity

Synopsis
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

whichband		Give the band number (1 relative)
		Allowed:	Int
		Default:	1
bandname		Band name (just used as a label
		Allowed:	String
		Default:	'band1'
freqlow		Low frequency band limit
		Allowed:	Quantity
		Default:	'100GHz'
freqhigh		High frequency band limit
		Allowed:	Quantity
		Default:	'1000GHz'
bandwidth		Bandwith for the observations
		Allowed:	Quantity
		Default:	'8GHz'
tsys		System temperature (below the atmosphere)
		Allowed:	Quantity
		Default:	'100K'
efficiency		Cumulative efficiency (antenna and correlator)
		Allowed:	Float
		Default:	0.80

Returns
Bool
