starting_model_file_name, solint
Read a starting model from disk and phase self-calibrate against it.
EXAMPLE
-------

0>startmod 
Applying default point source starting model
Performing phase self-cal
Adding 1 model components to the UV plane model.
The established model now contains 1 components and 1 Jy
 
Correcting IF 1.
 A total of 21 un-correctable visibilities were flagged in sub-array 1.

Fit before self-cal, rms=3.283113Jy  sigma=10.445014
Fit after  self-cal, rms=3.282763Jy  sigma=10.437578
 
Reinstating the default IF.
clrmod: All model representations cleared.
Redundant starting model cleared

All but the first line are responses from the startmod command and
its clients.

PARAMETERS
----------

model_file - Default = ""
             The file name containing delta and/or gaussian
             model components. If no file name is given, a point source
             model will be substituted.
             This model will be the starting model used to correct the
             phases via self-cal before mapping begins.
             The model will be discarded after use.

solint     - Default = 0.0.
             The solution interval (minutes). See 'help selfcal' for
             details.

CONTEXT
-------
Invoking startmod is equivalent to the following sequence of commands:

clrmod true
rmodel "somefile.mod"
selfcal
clrmod true

This results in the UV data being phase self-cal'd against a starting
model (say from modelfit), without producing residuals between
the model and the observed data. Since the model does not become part
of the established model, the starting model need only be a coarse
estimate of the true flux distribution.

SIDE EFFECTS
------------
Any existing models will be cleared before reading in the starting
model and the UV data will be re-inverted by the next operation that
requires the residual map.
