The default setup in SMALOD is for the data taken from an
online data computer using big-endian format. The Endian-swap 
is determined at the system level depending on the
endian format used by the offline data process computer
(users' desktop or laptop), USAGE:

smalod in=${DATPATH}/120505_02:52:05 out=test.uv rxif=0 \
   sideband=1

For an online data computer using little-endian format, 
SMALOD gives an option to convert the online data to the
data format used by users' computer, USAGE:

smalod in=${DATPATH}/120611_19:01:41 out=test.uv rxif=0 \
   options=sendian sideband=1
