To get the wobbler throw with MIRA

MIRA> let dopause yes

The wobbler throw fitted depends of the Wobbler phase and the velocity speed. The wobbler throw commanded is corrected of that dependence.

Tests:
Wobbler Throws (arcsec): 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 120 (Het.)
Integ. Time (s)/Length (arcsec): 30/60, 30/90, 30/120, 30/150, 20/120, 20/140, 20/160

We checked the effects of the Time Phase by performing various pointing on Uranus using one setup (Wobbler=50/Integ=30/Length=60) and different time phase. The results are the following:

tPhase=0.26 [Default]
Scan=242...250
ActualWobbler=[47.6,47.6,48.6,48.5,47.6,48.1,48.4,46.5]

tPhase=0.4

ActualWobbler=[49.7,49.,49.,49.3,47.3,48.5,49.1,48.1,48.4,48.4]
