The influence of a noisy environment on coherent transport in Andreev states through a point contact between two superconductors is considered. The amount of dephasing is estimated for a microwave-activated quantum interferometer. Possibilities of experimentally investigating the coupling between a superconducting quantum point contact and its electromagnetic environment are discussed.
