COMMENT   This file contains the full l-by-l covariance matrix associated with  
COMMENT   the 9-year beam transfer function for the WMAP differencing assembly  
COMMENT   indicated by the DA keyword.  In the notation of Appendix A2 of       
COMMENT   Hinshaw et al. 2007 (ApJ 170, 288), B_ll' = , where         
COMMENT   u_l = delta(b_l)/b_l is the fractional error in the beam transfer     
COMMENT   function b_l.                                                         
COMMENT   This is a symmetric matrix whose rows and columns are implicitly      
COMMENT   indexed by ascending multipole moment; the range of l is 0 to l_max,  
COMMENT   where l_max corresponds to NAXIS1 - 1 and is DA dependent. Since b_l  
COMMENT   is normalized to 1.0 at l=1, B_ll' assumes a value of zero for        
COMMENT   entries with this multipole value.
