SELF_NITER
Variable length array specifying the number of Clean components retained for
each loop of the self-calibration process. Default is 0, meaning all Clean
components found by CLEAN.
For simple structures and Phase calibration, 10 may be enough. For more com-
plex ones, be sure to include enough Clean components in the model. More
components can be taken at each step, although the better knowledge of phase
errors often allows the source to be represented with a smaller number of
components after self-calibration than before. The default is a reasonably
good compromise, although faster convergence may be obtained with smaller
number of components.
This variable length array can be resized using the LET /RESIZE command. For
example
LET SELF_NITER 10 0 0 /RESIZE
will lead to 3 self-calibration loops (if SELF_TIMES and SELF_MINFLUX are
also of size 3), the first one selecting only 10 components, the two others
all components.
