101# snrCut --  How many sigma above mean is a detection when sigma-clipping
102# threshold -- The threshold flux dividing source and non-source. Used instead
103#              of calculating it from the cube's statistics. If not specified,

121#              reconstruction
122# scaleMax -- The maximum scale to be included in the reconstruction. If it

124#              the array being reconstructed.
125# snrRecon -- The threshold used in filtering the wavelet coefficient arrays.
126# filterCode -- The code number for the choice of filter to be used in the
127#               reconstruction:  1 = B3-spline filter, 2 = Triangle function,
128#                                3 = Haar wavelet. Other numbers default to 2.
