CLEAN Map ps -- is a plot of the naturally weighted CLEAN image. The lowest contour levels (2 steps) on image is plotted at "clev" levels [Jy/beam], the peak brightness -- "max" values [Jy/beam]. The dashed contours indicate negative flux. The beam is shown in the bottom left corner of the images. The plot is in postscript format.
