Reduce this in IDL with e.g.: nk_focus_liss, '20150126s'+strtrim([21,22,23,24,25],2). To save time, you may run nk_rta in the standard way when each of these scans is finished, then do nk_focus_liss when they're all done. Choose the focus value for the 1mm channel by default.

- When you have applied the focus correction, do @NikaTeam/cross and apply the pointing corrections given for the 2mm. Yes, focus is optimized on the 1mm but pointing on the 2mm.
