TSYS /CONTINUUM

        Create  the binary table of CONTINUUM Tsys used by the NOEMA sensitivity
        estimator. None of the inputs can be customized at user level.  Contents
        are:

        Code      C*4  [     ]  System code
        Version   I*4  [     ]  Table version

        Pressure  R*4  [HPa  ]  Pressure at observatory altitude
        Gaini     R*4  [     ]  Image band gain

        Ne        I*4  [     ]  Number of elements (should be 3 = min,aver,max)
        Nf        I*4  [     ]  Number of LO frequencies
        Na        I*4  [     ]  Number of airmasses
        Nw        I*4  [     ]  Number of precipitable water vapor amounts
        Nt        I*4  [     ]  Number of temperatures

        F[Nf]     R*4  [GHz  ]  LO Frequencies
        A[Na]     R*4  [Neper]  Airmasses
        W[Nw]     R*4  [mm   ]  Precipitable water vapor amounts
        T[Nt]     R*4  [K    ]  Temperature values
        Trec[Nf]  R*4  [K    ]  Receiver temperatures (per LO frequency)
        Feff[Nf]  R*4  [     ]  Forward efficiencies (per LO frequency)

        Tsys[Ne,Nf,Na,Nw,Nt]  R*4  [K    ]  Tsys

        In  its  first dimensions, the Tsys table provides the triplet of values
        [min, average, max] found from the two sidebands  around  the  given  LO
        frequency.
