PHASE

The PHASE command multiples any subsequently defined beams by a complex factor determined by the defined phase angle. The syntax is:

PHASE angle

or

PHASE RANDOM

The angle is in units of degrees and may be any value. If the angle is set to the keyword RANDOM, the phase is randomly selected to be between -180 and 180 degrees. Note the random angle generated depends upon the random seed value used, search the help files for "Using random values" for details. All subsequently defined beams are multiplied by the resulting complex factor before being added to the master beam.
