importnro – Convert NOSTAR data into a CASA visibility file (MS) – single dish, import/export task

Description

Task importnro enables one to convert the data obtained with the NRO45m telescope into the CASA MS2 format. At this moment, only the OTF data (NOSTAR data) obtained with the SAM45 spectrometer is supported, and the OTF data obtained with the other spectrometers (e.g., AOS) and the PSW data (NEWSTAR data) are outside of scope (Jan./25/2017)

Parameters
