Abstract

A survey of a portion of the galactic plane has been carried out at a wavelength of 100 with a beamwidth of 12' and a sensitivity of 1022 W Hz-i. The survey covers 750 square degrees of the sky including most of the galactic plane between t11 = 335 and tIl - 88 and a number of other selected areas of interest. Seventy-two sources have been detected, 60 of which are identified with continuum radio sources, bright nebulae, dark nebulae, and infrared stars.
